Why we love it π Let’s look ahead to the summer! The Watershed Institute in Pennington is gearing up to host its massive, 25th Annual Butterfly Festival. This incredible, family-friendly celebration of nature is packed with hands-on science exhibits, butterfly house tours, animal shows, and educational activities focused on protecting our local rivers, lakes, and streams. We absolutely love environmental science festivals because they get kids outside to directly observe the biological world and learn how natural systems connect to sustain life!
How this event aligns with iCode Princeton πβοΈ Ecosystems are the most complex networks on the planet!
-
Systems Thinking & Variables: A butterfly’s lifecycle and habitat rely on exact environmental inputs to thrive. In coding, we teach our students how to track these exact inputs as “variables” to ensure their digital “ecosystem” of code runs flawlessly!
-
Data Science & Environmental Tech: Understanding how watersheds and biological ecosystems work is the first step toward building tech that protects them. In our Data Science and Python Tracks, we teach older students how to analyze massive datasets, which is the exact same technology conservationists use to track insect populations, water quality, and climate changes in the real world.
Join the fun, then keep the momentum going at iCode
ππ Explore the natural world at the Watershed, then bring that world-class curiosity to iCode Princeton where we teach you the tech to protect it!
