Technology Programs
Hands-on: Campers choose one Technology option for the full two-week session, and spend half the day learning how to use the equipment and software through doing. Our hands-on focused methods use tools like trial and error, critical thinking, and active problem solving to maximize the amount learned and retained over the course of the session.
Collaborative: Campers work with a partner* or small group to create and develop their projects. We don’t tell campers what to make, instead allowing them to work together to combine their strengths, interests, and creative ideas in order to accomplish a completely one-of-a-kind takeaway. Another positive is the communication skills built along the way are beneficial to any other area of the campers’ life that requires cooperation.
Individualized: We strive to maintain our 4:1 teaching ratio, but due to COVID the ratio may expand for this summer. Regardless, every TIC camper will receive the personal attention they deserve and every session is different. Our highly qualified Staff tailor instruction to each camper’s skill level and interests. Campers can repeat the same Technology Program option as many Sessions as they’d like and continue to deepen their knowledge without repetition.

*Why do campers share a computer? Part of TIC’s philosophy is giving camper’s the opportunity to practice and enhance their “soft skills” such as collaboration, communication, compromise, etc. Sharing a computer gives campers a chance to do this in an intentional way. Our campers constantly talk about how this approach elevates their experience because of the bonds they are able to create with their technology partner.
