Every year East Garner hosts a science focused summer camp. Past camps have included a water quality camp and a forensics camp. This year we are going to focus on the STEM principles. STEM stands for Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics. Students will use computer- based probes to design and carry out experiments, use various robots, and even design and build a robot. The camp will culminate with the students using computer based probes to measure forces exerted on them during a ride at an amusement park. Learn about robots and robotic controls.
