HARRISBURG, Pa. – The State Library in Harrisburg is offering summer STEM camps to Pennsylvania students ages 10-16 through mid-August.
The program is hosted in the State Library’s makerspace, and activities are largely hands-on using the makerspace’s computers with coding software, robot kits, Raspberry Pi and Arduino kits, and 3D printers; participants will also visit the State Museum. The theme of this year’s program is Geology and Paleontology.
“The State Library’s makerspace is great resource for students and other visitors to access to high-tech tools for hands-on learning, especially computer science and STEM-related activities,” Education Secretary Pedro A. Rivera said. “Every summer we encourage youth to stay sharp by participating in summer activities like a STEM camp. These programs, and others like it, are a great way to reduce the summer slide.”
