Summer S.T.E.A.M. 2021 Starts off Strong (Pictures)

7/12/2021

 
Picture
On Monday, July 12th, the James R. Jordan Foundation kicked off its annual Summer S.T.E.A.M. program in partnership with Northwestern University! Throughout the week, CPS students from our four partner schools are being transported to Northwestern's campus to learn about science, technology, engineering, arts, and mathematics through projects, interactive presentations, lab tours, and more!

​Learn more about the program and check out pictures from Monday's session below (click 'Read more")

The Program Schedule

Every morning students work on a hands-on Computer Science project that culminates in a showcase at the end of the week. The four project options for students are:
  • Game Design in Scratch
  • Sports Sense
  • Interactive Visual Art with p5.js
  • Physical Computing
In the afternoon, students get to explore the broader field of computer science and learn about the research of professors and graduate students at Northwestern.

​We'd like to thank Northwestern University, JRJF Advisory Board Member Dr. Michael Horn, and the TIDAL Lab team for their continued partnership and for providing students with a lunch catered by Chick-Fil-A during Monday's session. Stay tuned for more content from Summer S.T.E.A.M. throughout the next couple weeks!
