<h3>Introduction to Programming</h3>
<p>Visual Design: using the Processing Language<br />
<h4>Session Date:</h4>
Monday, June 16<br />
</p>
<h3>Description:</h3>
<p>This course features an introduction to programming and visual design using the <a href="http://processing.org">Processing Language</a>. Processing is a language created by MIT’s architecture school for visualizing data and drawing to the screen. They abstract away the class hierarchy and craft the language in a way that drawing to the screen is quite simple. For example: How to draw a circle? Simply type, drawCircle(x,y,r). Beat that C++ and Java!</p>

<h3>Introduction to Programming</h3>
<p>Learning the Python Language via Team Programming<br />
<h4>Session Date:</h4>
Monday, July 7<br />
</p>
<h3>Description:</h3>
<p>Python is a relatively new language being used by system administrators and as a scripting language to “get things done,” but the nuances of the language take some getting used to. This course takes students through all the basics in an innovative approach — Team Programming. Two students work together, programming and collaborating on one computer to solve the lessons. This is a good class for students to learn together!</p>

<h3>Getting Things Done With Python</h3>
<p>Python Game Programming – Part 1 & 2<br />
<h4>Session Date: (Note - 2 Day Course)</h4>
Tuesday, July 8 & Wednesday, July 9<br />
</p>
<h3>Description:</h3>
<p>Using the textbook <a href="http://jasonrbriggs.com/python-for-kids/">Python-for-kids</a>, students learn Python to put together a small platform jumper game and look at how all the parts of the Python language are put together. Books will be provided for in-class use only. Students may purchase a book for their own use, but it is not required.</p>

<h3>Python Programming</h3>
<p>Build a Python bot with robotgame.net<br />
<h4>Session Date:</h4>
Thursday, July 10<br />
</p>
<h3>Description:</h3>
<p>Students show their programming skills by constructing a virtual py-bot using instructions at <a href="http://robotgame.net">robotgame.net</a>, determine their strategy and enter the bot challenge. Once they join the arena, they’ll be randomly paired or can challenge their friends. After 100 competitions, we will see whose bot is the strongest of them all. (Please note: challenges are completed virtually through software -- no actual robots will be built (or harmed) in this course.)</p>

<h3>Introduction to OS Virtualization, Configuration, and Automation</h3>
<h4>Session Date:</h4>
Monday, July 14<br />
</p>
<h3>Description:</h3>
<p>How do large companies like Facebook, Google, and Amazon deploy hundreds and even thousands of servers at a time? Hint: they use virtualization and automation. In this course students are exposed to technologies such as Virtualbox, Vagrant, Packer, Hyper-V, Cobbler, KVM and more to get an idea of how technology really works at scale.</p>

<h3>Linux: Install of Gentoo Linux</h3>
<h4>Session Date:</h4>
Thuesday, July 15<br />
</p>
<h3>Description:</h3>
<p>Gentoo Linux is unique among all Linux distros as every install is custom built to fit specific hardware. So it’s not really installed, it’s actually built from scratch. This course involves a “last person standing” challenge because even one misstep can lead to a failed OS install. Appropriate for students who love puzzles and challenges.</p>

<h3>Introduction to Programming and Visual Design using Processing Language</h3>
<h4>Session Date:</h4>
Monday, July 21<br />
</p>
<h3>Description:</h3>
<p>This course features an introduction to programming and visual design using Processing Language. Processing is a language created by MIT’s architecture school for visualizing data and drawing to the screen. They abstract away the class hierarchy and craft the language in a way that drawing to the screen is quite simple. For example: How to draw a circle? Simply type, drawCircle(x,y,r). Beat that C++ and Java!</p>

<h3>Introduction to Arduino and Wearable Computing</h3>
<h4>Session Date:</h4>
Tuesday, July 22<br />
</p>
<h3>Description:</h3>
<p>Students learn the <a href="http://arduino.cc">Arduino Embedded System Platform</a> and the <a href="http://www.adafruit.com/flora">Flora</a>. This class is not just for engineers though! The Arduino platform was created to abstract away the need to know AVR and Assembler code and allow users to code in a simple C-like language to interact with hardware and give analog and digital sensors intelligence.</p>
