Glacier × Shrewsbury School | UK Summer Programming Camp: Unlock the Future of Technology with Raspberry Pi—Boost Your English and STEM Skills!
As Glacier—a provider of one-stop services for summer schools, study abroad programs for young students, and au pair placements—we are dedicated to connecting students with the world’s top educational resources and creating immersive learning experiences for international students aged 11–16. Today, we are thrilled to announce our partnership with Shrewsbury School, a century-old British institution, to launch the Programming and Technology Academy. Here, students will unlock the world of programming using Raspberry Pi, enhance their STEM skills in an English-speaking environment, make friends from around the globe, and lay a solid foundation for future study abroad or careers in STEM!
Highlights of the Core Curriculum: Explore Technology with the Raspberry Pi—Covering Everything from Beginner to Advanced Levels
Glacier’s curated programming courses consist of 12 hours of interactive projects spread over four mornings each week, catering to learners of all levels, from beginners to advanced enthusiasts:
– Raspberry Pi Basics: First Lesson in Programming
Using a credit-card-sized Raspberry Pi 4 as the core, students will learn coding logic and hardware connections, opening the door to the world of programming—Gelaixi’s professional instructors will provide guidance throughout the process, helping children quickly master the basics.
– Turtle Graphics: An Introduction to Creative Programming
With Python's visual programming module, children can create lively animations, learn programming concepts through play, and easily fall in love with coding!
