  • I will remember this entire experience because this is the most interactive class I have ever had. I am truly a lover of constructivist learning. I will always remember the interesting field trips we took and the exciting guest speakers. This class has been quite a trip. I have learned many valuable life lessons and I have gotten a great preview of college. - Kelli
  • I gained a lot from this course, programming skills with MicroWorlds and Robo lab, and participating in our group simulations. I will remember and use my skills to further advance my education skills. – Jerome
  • Months from now I will remember my roles as the “debugger” and how great it felt when I was able to successfully troubleshoot my robots and programs (as well as the robots and programs of others). So many times in Logo and Mindstorms I felt as if I could fix anything (even without a lot of time) because I had enough patience, knowledge, and resources (ex. to look up code) to do anything.- Bryan
  • I gained insight into college life, a learning experience, a lot of practical information that I will take with me as I grow and mature. Thank you for this opportunity and this wonderful experience. - Melissa
  • ... the fun and exciting activities are Lego and Microworlds, ... another thing was constructivist methods for teachers and students. - Steven
  • I have learned a lot of things, such as working with groups, ways to become successful in college, attitude and working habits - Alhaji
  • I really enjoyed the class and it was an awesome experience. If i do get the chance to take it again next year, I would do so. Hope the rest of your summer will be good. Thanks! - Carolyn
  • The entire past three weeks has been an incredibly valuable experience. This class has actually exceeded my expectations. - Eitan
  • I did leave with more than I came with. I can honestly say this course has changed my life. - Titilayo
