Summer tech camp for kids, teens

As technology becomes increasingly integral to everyday life, digitally savvy kids can enhance their tech skills to further enrich their knowledge and creativity. This summer, Power Mac Center (PMC), through its official training arm Basecamp, is offering young learners the chance to take their digital expertise to the next level.

Basecamp’s Creativity Camp is now open for registration, welcoming children age 7 to 15 to its highly anticipated annual summer workshops on iPad and Mac. Running from May to June, these hands-on sessions will equip kids with valuable skills in 2D and 3D design, augmented reality (AR), animation, podcasting, and artificial intelligence (AI).

Basecamp is an Apple Professional Learning Provider, only the second in Asia to have that title. By enrolling in its courses, parents are assured that kids get high-quality, impactful education that promotes creativity, critical thinking, and digital literacy using Apple technologies.

The “3D and AR Creators: Build and Bring Stories to Life” course invites young learners to dive into the exciting worlds of 3D design and AR. With fun, easy-to-use apps, they’ll craft interactive digital models and bring their imaginative ideas to life.

In the “Creative Storytelling: Podcast and Animation Fun” course, they’ll learn to write, record, and animate their own stories using the iPad.

“3D & AR Creators: Build and Bring Stories to Life” is scheduled on May 6 and 8, May 13 and 15, May 20 and 22, and May 27 and 29, while “Creative Storytelling: Podcast and Animation Fun” takes place on June 3 and 5, June 10 and 12, June 17 and 19, and June 24 and 26. Participants can choose between morning sessions from 10 a.m. to noon or afternoon sessions from 2 p.m. to 4 p.m.

“Digital Designers: Create in 2D & 3D” is an interactive workshop where young artists and aspiring designers, animators, and architects explore 2D and 3D design using Mac apps. Through hands-on learning, they will design stunning digital models and build a strong foundation in digital art and design.

“Make Your Own AI: Fun with Smart Technology” is an exciting course that allows kids to discover how AI works and even build their own smart models—no coding required.
