Overview
Students pick a project they care about — an app, a game, a sensor build, a data investigation — and a mentor guides them from idea to a finished, documented result. Great for building a portfolio, a science-fair entry, or a college application talking point.
What you'll be able to do
- Take a project from concept to a working, demonstrable build
- Use version control, task planning, and iterative development
- Document work with a README, a short write-up, and a demo video
- Practice presenting technical work to a non-technical audience
- Build a portfolio artifact students are proud to show
What this sets you up for
- Science-fair and competition entries
- Portfolio for school and college applications
