Funded by CSSIA, this two-day camp will feature sessions taught by women from the UIS Computer Science department and Information Technology staff who will provide a hands-on introduction to drop-and-drag programming with Story Telling Alice, fundamentals of robotics using Lego robots, and a round of battle-bots. A scavenger hunt for access points will teach the girls about computer networking and steganography as the young ladies will access the server holding the treasure file. Using digital flip cameras and iMovie, the girls will film their own movies, edit them, add sound track and premier them at the closing session. The campers will also create magazine covers that star themselves using Photoshop and Web-cams, and will get acquainted with the hardware in the "What's in the Box?" session.
