[PAST EVENT] iD Tech Camp
June 15, 2014 - June 20, 2014
At iD Tech, our summer programs are constantly evolving but fun, learning, and 21st century skill building will always be the heart of what we do. Our passion for tech education will continue to grow alongside the expanding STEM job market. Discover what's new for 2014 at iD Tech Camps, iD Programming Academy, iD Game Design & Development Academy, iD Film Academy, and iD Tech 365:
Our independent, family-owned company is driven by innovation. Since 1999, we've given 21st century relevancy to the phrase summer camp, taking hands-on learning to a new level. Whether you're a computer novice or a tech whiz, you'll shine at our kids camps and pre-teen camps for ages 7-17 (Jump to Teen Programs). Week-long sessions include nurturing, personalized technology instruction, and a variety of fun summer camp activities. Come explore a university campus with us, get inspired by energetic instructors, and build critical 21st century STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math) skills.

HIGH-ENERGY, HANDS-ON EXPERIMENTATION
Our labs buzz with excitement and innovation. We get noisy at times. We collaborate and learn from new friends. We're guided by high-energy, tech-savvy instructors, and our imaginations soar. Yes, I'll make my own video game. Or learn to program my very own iPhone or Android App. Perhaps I'll code the next big thing in C++ or Java. Maybe I'll design a website or produce a film. This is my camp. I learn at my pace. It's MY internalDrive.
With personalized instruction and never more than 8 students per instructor guaranteed, this is anything but a typical classroom environment. There are no grades here. We take the pressure off so you can get straight to what matters--building a love of learning, bringing your final project to life with unabashed creativity. If the iD Way deems us un-school, well, we wouldn't have it any other way. (Jump to Teen Programs)
IN THE LABS | THE iD PEDAGOGY
Non-traditional teaching style and environment emphasize experiential, hands-on learning.
Guaranteed 8:1 Student to Instructor ratio fosters personalized instruction and proper pacing for all skill levels (beginner through advanced).
University setting instills the importance of higher education, and excites students about collegiate life.
STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math) skill development promotes tech confidence. Curriculum is designed to promote 21st century skills like communication, critical thinking, problem-solving, and collaboration.
Project-based courses give students something to strive for (and a portfolio to take home).
Innovative blended learning approach mixes in-person instruction with iD Game Plan, our proprietary learning platform, developed in-house. Nobody does it like iD.
Exposure to the industry's best software (from Apple, Google, Adobe, Microsoft, Autodesk, etc.) empowers and prepares students for a real-world future in tech.
OFF-COMPUTER TIME | LIFE SKILLS DEVELOPMENT
A common sense balance of indoor and outdoor activities promotes good health and social interaction.
Variety of sports (optional), and board-games, team activities, gaming tournaments, and university tours introduces students to new experiences.
Unique tech camp environment unites students who often have similar interests, providing a foundation for new, long-term friendships.
