What Can I Learn From Rancho Labs’ Tech Summer Camp?

The Tech Summer Camp is a structured curriculum that walks you through the anatomy of a robot, from the fundamentals of motors to sensors to the logic board, as well as scripting, user interface, and application. It is a 6-week experiential program for grades 6th to 10th focused on technology and innovation with a unique methodology of Learn, Build, and Innovate conducted by IITians.

This curriculum is intended to teach children about real-world problems and difficulties, as well as how to solve them using machines and robotics.

Classes: 3 class per week

Duration of program: 6 weeks

Goals You Can Accomplish

Challenges in the real world are unpredictable and daunting. Super-specialization of a single field can do more damage than success. As a result, the Rancho Labs curriculum leads the children through a variety of essential and complementary skills and information domains. This ensures that the child develops holistically.

Benefits of the Program:

• Ensures a unique outcome
• Each of you can build an item that will be an outcome of your own ideology!
• Develops a sense of imagination
• In order to find something unique, you have to expand your imaginary skills and come forth with your idea to our IITian mentors and they will help you achieve your imagination. That sounds fun, right?!
• Improves the flexibility of a situation
• Whenever you encounter any error or difficulty while implementing your project, by the passage of time you will get flexible to face the odds and overcome them in no time!
• Encourages creativity
• The solutions you come up with are obviously gonna do that for you! The more creative, you are, the more unique your project will be!

Just think of any project in your mind and Rancho Labs has got you covered; be it the maze to be navigated, follow a line, dispose-off a bomb, or go out and predict the weather — you will learn them all!

What Will The Tech Camp Cover?

The Summer Camp Program is mainly divided into six levels that are divided into separate packages based on the age range of our students, bringing them from basic to advanced level concepts in that domain. We make sure that every subject we cover and every assignment we complete in class reflects the machines’ real-world importance.
