Geek Girl
We will have some Geek Girls at the booth to answer questions on tech. We will be setup with Star Wars and other props for pictures and selfies. We will have resource material.
ViaSat
Did you know that you can write your name, or in this case your initials, using binary coding using the ASCII code that computers read? Computers assign a string of 0’s and 1’s in different combinations and that translates as images or words on a computer screen. For this activity you will pick three colors – one will represent 0, one will represent 1 and the last we will use as a space between letters.
Cajon Valley School District - TEDxKids@ElCajon
Cajon Valley Union School District will share some of their innovative maker activities. At Cajon Valley students learn Presentation Literacy by writing and presenting their own TED talks. Students learn computer programing through our partnership with code.org, engineering with Lego EV3 Mindstorm robots, Dash and Dot robots and many more opportunities. Check out the Cajon Valley School District schools and opportunities at our website, www.cajonvalley.com
iD Tech
iD Tech is proud to provide STEAM activities for kids and teens this year at EXPO Day! Visit our booth to explore how you can "Make Awesome" with Minecraft, robotics, virtual reality, 3d printing, and more!
The School for Entrepreneurship and Technology
Our booth gives attendees a chance to learn about robotics and drive robots. We have formerly exhibited under the name Coleman Tech.
California Space Grant Consortium (CasGC)
The UCSD Near Space Ballooning team sponsored by CaSGC will be displaying informational and educational material regarding high altitude ballooning. Also exhibiting will be electronic equipment such as radio transmitters, cameras, satellite navigation systems, and a glider which can all be payload components recording atmospheric data. From past events, we've seen a growing interest from educators and families interested in launching their own balloons due to material accessibility.
San Diego Mobile Technology for Kids Project
Cardboard Video Game Controllers! Students will make their own video game controllers that interface with a computer to play a preloaded video game(e.g. Super Mario). In Station 1, kids will color, cut, & decorate their controller design using markers, cardboard, and foil paper. In Station 2, they will connect their custom controllers to our laptops using our Makey Makey computer interface boards. Kids learn about circuits (closed v. open) & computer engr. design cycles (prototype & test).
