HER Academy is on a mission to empower every girl – and from there every child – to become a creator and designer of technology through computer science.
Register Now for Co-ed Summer Code Camps
Children rising into grades 3-5 can register for our signature summer code camp — one week of fun-filled exploration of computer science. In creative, play-oriented activities, campers program animated characters, build cardboard automatons, explore multiple robotics platforms, and more!
This year, we’re also launching summer programs for middle and high school students in grades 6-12!
Program Description: 3D design and animation teaches students the skills needed to design in a 3D space. They will learn to create 3D dimensional objects, characters, and environments with a focus on solid surface modeling for video game and animation assets. Students will then animate these structures through the use of rigging and keyframing. All of these will be completed using Blender, a free and open source software that is used by many video game companies, including Ubisoft.
