Robotics Coding Virtual Camp – fall program

Trillium Lakelands District School Board (TLDSB) is excited to partner with LEARNstyle to provide students living with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) a virtual camp experience in November and December. Through the Robotics Coding Virtual Camp, students will learn computation problem-solving strategies and basic coding concepts through graphical code and block code. Students have the opportunity to build friendships through a shared interest in computers, coding, and robotics.

Who?

Students with ASD who are in Grades 4-12 during the 2022-2023 school year and who the school team feels would benefit from and participate in social skills instruction. Students must be motivated to participate in a virtual group learning session using Google Meet for 90 minutes a day, once a week.

Students without an identification of ASD are welcome to apply and will be offered acceptance if space permits.

When?

This five-week camp will run during the weeks of November 14 to December 12, from 5:30 to 7 p.m. either on Monday or Friday.

What does the program look like?

  • Five, 90-minute virtual sessions of group and self-paced coding activities.
  • A partnership with parents/guardians (and students) in order to enhance student participation and success.
  • One Learnstyle coach per group of five students.
  • NEW coding sessions are available this year for students who have previously participated in the program.

How to register?
