| Description |
| In this exclusive, one of a kind camp, students will enter the world
of a computer technician. From researching parts and prices on the
Internet to plugging in video cards, students will discover the nuts
and bolts of building a computer! Students will begin by designing
their own ultimate virtual computer, assuming unlimited resources.
This allows them to design a “pie in the sky” computer
with a 60” plasma screen, the fastest CPU and memory, gaming
video cards, and hard drives with enormous capacity. Students will
then come down to earth and assemble a real working computer, which
they may take home for a nominal lab fee. Returning students will
learn advanced topics from our resident technical guru with over 20
years of experience! |
| What is special about this camp? |
| Students will get into the guts of a computer to discover what makes
it tick! |
| Are there any prerequisites for this camp? |
| Students must be at least 12 years of age. Physical strength and
mental discipline are required in order to carefully handle expensive
and potentially hazardous equipment. Good keyboarding skills are always
useful, as well as a general knowledge of Internet search techniques,
Excel and Word Processing. |
