Empow Studios – STEM Camp, STEM After School, Tech Classes, Birthday Parties

Grab a pick axe and join your fellow Minecraftians for a weekly class of game design, world creation, exploration, and modding madness! When it comes to discovery and education within Minecraft, the options are truly limitless. We stress designing, building, and creating as opposed to strictly ‘playing’ the game. We encourage growth and learning through the Minecraft platform, which engages children to learn because of their love for Minecraft. Club members will learn about electrical engineering, circuit boards, landscape design, modding, command blocks, architecture, and more. These techniques will enable kids to experiment with coding techniques, work together to create a LAN game, design and build mechanical devices, and learn about different types of automation, all in a virtual world for real-world applications.

Times & Costs:

Class meets every Saturday morning, 9:00am – 10:30am.

Club membership requires a monthly payment of $120 through a credit card or bank account on file with Empow. Monthly payments are processed on the same calendar day that you sign up (Sept 12th, Oct 12th, Nov 12th, etc).

Empow’s Video Game Design Club teaches kids about programming logic, coding, and story-telling by capitalizing on their passion for video games. Our classes will cover all areas of Video Game Design (VGD), including designing sprites, building character control, creating an intuitive user interface, and more! VGD Club members start with their imagination, and we help them bring their ideas to life. Each VGD member will also have the opportunity to showcase their video games to fellow club members, allowing for constructive beta-testing in a fun and engaging environment.

Classes run every Saturday morning, 11:00am – 12:30pm.

AT A GLANCE: GIRLS STEAM CLUB

EMPOWERING GIRLS IN STEAM

Girls… They’re awesome problem solvers, creators, designers, and collaborators. So why is it that girls claimed only 19% of all bachelor’s degrees in engineering and 18% in computer science in 2014? Our Girls STEAM Club tries to bring some balance to the world by exploring coding and engineering through projects in animation, robotics, 3D modeling, fashion, and design. Our female teachers will build the group’s confidence and knowledge with a new challenge each week, giving the group a taste of a wide variety of technologies. No prior experience is required.

GEAR UP FOR A WEEKLY ROBOTICS CLASS, OR TRAIN FOR NEXT SEASON’S FLL

Robotics Club at Empow Studios is a cooperative, welcoming group where kids work together to accomplish challenges and missions, inspired by FLL – the FIRST LEGO League. Whether your child is looking to build and program their first robot, or start training for the FLL competition, these weekly classes cover the coding and engineering needed to make autonomous robots. We use LEGO MINDSTORMS EV3 kits, the newest version of LEGO robotic software and equipment. This club is open for kids in grades 2-6.

We built our FLL table to match the qualified specifications regulated by FLL, that way future competitors will be well-prepared for the season. Never heard of FLL? No problem! Check out our FIRST LEGO League team page for more details.
