Spark your curiosity, creativity and imagination with us this summer! Our goal with the annual Summer SPARK! program is to increase technology and computer science literacy for learners of all backgrounds and interests.

We are very excited to be offering a virtual learning experience
to anyone, anywhere, free of charge! |
We will be using a connected learning model, which is all about empowering learners to pursue their interest and passion with the support of peers, mentors and facilitators. The learning experiences will happen over three weeks with three different themes. You can sign-up for one or for all. Each week, we will explore the theme through interactive challenges, video tutorials, lunch & learns, and learning from experts in the field. There will be synchronous (in person video conferencing) and asynchronous (do at your own pace) activities. We will wrap up the week with a Demo Party to share all the awesome creating from the week!
Who: You must 11 years or older to participate. Every participant must agree to a consent & release (under 18 must be agreed to by a parent/guardian).
When: Synchronous activities will happen between 10am-4pm ET
Cost: Because of the generous support of our sponsors, we are able to offer this programming for FREE!
