DIGITAL DEVELOPMENT CAMP STUDENTS CHOOSE BETWEEN THREE TRACKS:
The FullStack track gives aspiring developers the opportunity to learn about full stack web development. FullStack includes front-end design, human-computer interface and user experience, back end development including data integration. This track includes daily lessons, workshops, guest speakers and individual/group work time. Campers work in teams to plan and develop a web site of their own.
The Data Science track uses computing for social good as a springboard for student led projects using publicly available data to address relevant issues in a particular community. Student teams will choose a community and issue to address then find data, analyze it, create a data visualization and write a report on the findings. Data science includes statistics, database basics, data analysis tools and effective presentation skills. This track includes daily lessons, workshops, guest speakers and group work time. Campers work in teams to plan and develop a data science project.
New for 2023: the Human-Computer Interaction (HCI) track provides students with the tools to improve user experience and enable collaborative problem solving among groups. Students will gain an understanding of HCI technologies that support and complement human needs and abilities in context such as work, wellness, home, entertainment and artistic expression.
