Why we love it π You don’t need to be a college student to learn from the pros! Princeton University’s Science Outreach team is bringing their brilliant “Science Saturdays” program right to our local Lawrence Library. Elementary and middle school students will get to dive into highly engaging, hands-on science activities designed and led by university researchers. We absolutely love this event because it takes high-level STEM concepts and makes them completely accessible, giving local kids direct exposure to real-world scientific discovery!
How this event aligns with iCode Princeton πβοΈ The scientific method of experimenting and observing is the exact same process we use to build and test software!
-
The “Maker” Mindset: A hands-on science experiment is the ultimate playground for innovation! By testing hypotheses and combining elements to see what happens, kids are practicing early data analysis. At iCode, we nurture this exact same curiosity, encouraging kids to prototype, test, and debug their code without the fear of making mistakes.
-
From the Lab to the Laptop: Every great scientific discovery relies on data tracking! In our advanced Python and Java Belts, we teach older students how to write the exact same syntax that university researchers use to build data algorithms, track variables, and automate their complex experiments!
Join the funβthen keep the momentum going at iCode ππ Start experimenting at the library, then bring that world-class curiosity to iCode Princeton where we turn big ideas into real-world tech skills!
