US Sports Camps and Ozobot Announce New Coding Camps
Learn Coding Concepts through Robotics this Summer at Camp Ozobot
SAN RAFAEL, California (April 14, 2022):
US Sports Camps, the largest provider of sports camps in the world, today announced an exciting new summer camp partnership with Ozobot, an award-winning creator of programmable robots and STEAM-based learning solutions for education.
The Camp Ozobot experience, which will utilize Ozobot coding solutions, including Color Codes and Ozobot Blockly, along with standards-aligned curriculum, will be geared towards students between ages 8-14 and will provide them the opportunity for hands-on learning to explore the creative capabilities that computer science offers, both in and out of the classroom.
Taught by credentialed educators, students will engage with Evo, Ozobot’s coding robot and work through critical thinking and problem solving to build coding literacy and enhance their skill set while learning real-world applications. Woven throughout each half-day session are opportunities to collaborate and play with peers, express creativity and further computer science knowledge, all in a safe and fun environment.
“Ozobot is a leader in STEM classrooms and schools,” said Charlie Freund, Partnership Director for Youth Enrichment Brands at US Sports Camps, “Coupling these impassioned, talented educators with Ozobot’s transformative coding programs into a summer camp is special. Camps are where we can really engage, challenge, and individualize academics.”
“We’re excited to partner with US Sports Camp to bring an immersive and hands-on STEAM experience that equips students with future-ready skills while encouraging creativity, collaboration and a love for computer science,” said Nicholas Brunner, Director of Strategic Programs, Ozobot.
Camps will run for four days with half-day sessions each day starting from July 25, 2022 to August 4, 2022 at professional workspaces in Austin, TX, San Mateo, CA and Orange County, CA.
