The bootcamp provides a beginner-friendly introduction to coding through interactive, project-based learning with Micro:bit devices, empowering students to create and innovate.
The PWCS Bits & Bytes Bootcamp for Code Creators is a beginner-friendly program designed for middle school students (grades 5-7) to explore foundational coding concepts. Using Micro:bit devices, students learn block-based programming and understand how hardware and software interact. Participants engage in hands-on activities, designing and building interactive projects such as simple games, digital tools, or LED-based creations. The bootcamp aims to strengthen problem-solving, logic, and computational thinking skills, fostering confidence with technology and demonstrating how coding can be used for creation, design, and innovation.
A typical day involves hands-on activities where students use Micro:bit devices to learn block-based programming and work on designing and building interactive projects.
This camp is best for middle school students who are new to coding and interested in exploring how to create digital projects and understand technology.
