This week at Short Hills, aspiring pilots dove into their interest in aeronautical engineering through drone programming. The drone programming course teaches students to program drones and master efficient maneuvering techniques. Student confirming proper drone procedures with manual. When students first opened up their drones, they were excited to get started with flying them around. […]
Today at Short Hills, Engineering Arduino students opened their Arduino kits for the first time. Kids learned to navigate the basic operations of the Arduino boards and the computer functions associated with them. Students aim to build their own unique programs and projects with the kits. Students preparing their boards and programs. Students prepare to […]
The third week of the Short Hills Site is starting strong! The robotics class got straight to work on making their robots, and some finished it in one day. In chemical engineering, the students made balloons inflate with the power of science. They filled bottles with baking soda and put balloon on the rim, and […]
This week in Chatham we have chemical engineering! In chemical engineering, the students combine different materials to create something new! Today, the students were making bouncy balls! They made these bouncy balls by combining glue, borax, and water. Campers were experimenting on the ratio of their ingredients to see what made their ball the bounciest. […]
As we wrap up Week 7 of International Ivy here in Summit I have to say that it has been a rather mellow week. The campers were all excited to be here and take part in their classes but at the same time had a “chilled out” vibe to them. This fit in well with […]
Happy Tuesday! Today was the second day of week 7 at International Ivy Short Hills. In the morning, students were eager to continue their learning and projects they started yesterday. In class this morning students are learning to create and build fun obstacle courses in Minecraft, testing their innovation and design skills in Youngsters Engineering, […]
Today, we’re excited to showcase our Youngsters – We Do Robotics class. Campers picked out a fun creation of their choice and built it in Legos. After building completion, they used their newly learned knowledge about coding to program their robots! By paying close attention to the core principles of the engineering design process, students […]
We’re back at it again with another exciting STEAM class at International Ivy in Short Hills! Today we are featuring our Virtual Reality class. Campers were absorbed in creating their own roller coaster on CoSpaces Edu, a state-of-the-art virtual reality creation tool. This application allows campers of all ages to create their own 3D and […]
