Summer Programs

Welcome Summer Programs!

FreshBrain is a great resource for use in your program. It is progressive, educational, safe, fun and FREE.

FreshBrain provides a safe social-networking-based website where teens can explore, connect, create, and share with technology.  In the FreshBrain environment teens participate in fun and educational activities and projects while learning the technology and 21st century skills that they need to be successful.

FreshBrain can enhance your summer program in a number of ways.

  • Use our Virtual Summer Technology Camp
  • Pick and Choose Learning Paths, Activities or Projects
  • Create your Own Program 

Use our Virtual Summer Technology Camp

Our camp is very much like an in person technology camp.  Pick the area of interest and work through the activities to gain expertise.  Each area of interst will take between 10 and 20 hours of time, providing a solid understanding and developing valuable skills.  We support you with virtual camp counselors who are in our offices everyday helping the campers with any problems they case.

Each step along way will have your kids creating something that they will be proud of.  And once they complete all of the activies in their area of interest, they get a virtual badge.

Have your teens pick the learning path that is most interesting to them. Here are some examples planned for next year.

  • Make a 3D Video Game
  • Build a Mobile Phone App
  • Building Flashy Websites with JavaFX
  • Learn Java Programming
  • Make Exceptional Videos
  • Digital Graphics Lab
  • Animation Exploration
  • Mix It, Mash It, Make Your Own Music
  • Introduction to Robotics 

All you need to do is provide computers and access to the internet!  If you are interested, please join the Summer Virtual Technology Camp 2010 group.

Pick and Choose Learning Paths, Activities or Projects

If you already have a program in place, you can use FreshBrain as a way to make it more interesting, fun and educational.  Here are some things that you can do.

  • Pick your content - the Activities, Projects and Learning Paths that support your program.
  • Create a group just for your kids where you can interact online.
  • Have them participate in contests and scholarships.
