Our seniors are doing great work!  The partnership creating the shapeshifting pill has developed an impressive print media advertisement using advanced design skills in Adobe InDesign.  With some extra time, they’ve taken the initiative to experiment with a program called Scratch, which is a program that helps users to learn some of the concepts of programming in a scaffolded environment.  It is, I believe, created by MIT students and has become very popular in the educational setting.  I’m so impressed that these campers are teaching themselves how to use Scratch without any help from me.  Our other senior campers are meticulously working to create a print media advertisement for their fictional port of Minecraft onto the Radio Shack TRS-80 computer.  Their attention to detail is helping them to create an impressive product!  Bravo!
