In this camp, students are going to learn about the basic electric terminology, the physics behind the semiconducting material, how the electrons are moving in the solar cell. Students will have a chance to work with solar cells to make a small solar panel, so students will get a chance to work with soldering and heat gun. Students will learn how much it is going to cost to install a solar energy system in their homes. Students are going to work on the Alternative Energy snap circuit Kit and some other solar STEM educational kits that allow students to develop safely and easily deal with electronic projects. We may visit a 10kW solar energy system installed at John Bardo Center on campus.

This advanced VEX camp is designed around the new 2024-25 VEX competition game (to be released on April 27th).  Campers will work in groups to build and program the new Hero Bot using VEX V5 robotics kits.  Once groups have learned to control their robots, they will develop and practice strategies for playing the game.  An unofficial scrimmage will be held at the end of the week to see how well the groups have progressed.  Students should have experience with building and programming with VEX V5 to attend this camp.
