Camp EdTech Green takes two seemingly opposing elements -- technology and nature -- and brings them together to help children better understand the world around them and the gadgets in their hands. The camp was developed by a leader in mobile-integrated education and by veterans of public education. The curriculum is inspired and informed by Maker's Ed and Project Based Learning. Campers will discover robotics, coding, and use iPads to work with apps and create movies to document their findings.

Project based learning (PBL), students go through an extended process of inquiry in response to a complex question, problem, or challenge. While allowing for some degree of student "voice and choice," rigorous projects are carefully planned, managed, and assessed to help students learn key academic content, practice 21st Century Skills (such as collaboration, communication & critical thinking), and create high-quality, authentic products & presentations.http://***
