Register by completing the form below. Space is limited to 15 participants and will be filled on a first-come, first-served basis.

Day One: Drones
Drones have not only changed the way we capture aerial photography and videos but much more! These miniature aircraft are changing farming, delivery services, engineering, and even racing. We will explore the parts of a drone, how to pilot one safely, and take a look into their real-world use cases.

Day Two: Digital Game Design & Avatar Creation
Lots of things go into making a great video game: the story, the challenges, the characters, the graphics, even the music! Game makers use their coding skills to bring the worlds and characters to life for players. Some game makers even go the extra step and design their games to make a difference in the real world. We will explore creating an avatar and designing a challenge that they need to overcome.

Day Three: 3D Printing
This innovative new technology is changing the way homes, aircraft parts, food, and even organs are being produced. Students will learn the basics of 3D design in TinkerCAD and then work together to design and produce a project that will take them through the entire 3D printing process.

Day Four: Virtual Reality
The Metaverse has been the dream of technology enthusiasts for years. It will change the way people socialize, work, share ideas and have fun in the future, in fact, it already is! We will explore different applications with VR headsets and explore this up-and-coming virtual world.

Day Five: ESports
Last year, more than $16 million in eSports scholarships were awarded by U.S. colleges, helping to fuel the explosive growth of high school teams. Proponents say they work just like other sports teams. Players respond to coaching and work together to develop effective "on-field" strategies. We will explore these competitive games in Seton LaSalle's very own eSports arena!

Day Six: Broadcast & Live Video Production
The explosive growth of live streaming has not only changed the way we watch content but the way creators produce it. With major platforms like YouTube providing easy ways to share, it's no wonder why viewers are choosing this medium. We will explore the hardware and software that is needed to produce quality content and live-stream it to viewers in Seton LaSalle's Production Lab.
