STEM Explorers: Build a Computer!
Four-week hands-on STEM series (ages 8–12) building and programming Piper computers with Minecraft
In this hands-on program, participants will assemble and explore Piper computers, gaining practical experience with computer engineering, coding, and problem-solving.
Each week, kids will unlock new challenges as they build and program a computer, using Minecraft to learn foundational STEM skills in a fun and collaborative environment. No prior experience is necessary, but it is helpful if kids are familiar with using a computer mouse.
This four-week series meets weekly on September 22, September 29, October 6, and October 13.
Registration is required. Please do not register if your child is under the age of 8.
