Think IT’s a bad fit for your kids – that it’s just sitting in front of a computer? Wrong! Technology can teach you many valuable things. Our Sunday program is for everyone aged 6–16, and we can guarantee that you and your children will leave it with lots of new experiences and smiles on your faces.

Besides the toys your children will be able to try out, you’ll also find information on possibilities for tech education in Pilsen, and on juniors’ future possible careers. You too may have a little IT star at home. Come and find out!

I teach Hardware, Electronics, Operating Systems and Informatics. At Younghackers we will be presenting 3D printing and using the Mercury kit in conjunction with Arduino to create robots with enthusiasts from our tech club. Anyone can create and take away a key tag with their name on it, or try to build and animate a robot.

I am interested in the application of computer vision methods in the field of biomedical research. I am also interested in robotics and its use in teaching programming. We organize the Campo Arduino summer cyber camp to teach participants to solve basic problems using robots. At the #AimtecHackathon, you will specifically learn about the mBot robot, which is known for its accessibility and flexibility. The robot will interact with its environment and you will control it within a simple game.

Logiscool is an international programming school for children and young people, operating in 30 countries. We use state-of-the-art tools for teaching, including our unique learning platform and community portal. We take children as young as 7 years old through digital literacy courses and then through visual block programming to text-based programming. The goal of the classes is to introduce children to programming playfully and safely. The courses are also useful for learning other life skills such as logical, algorithmic and analytical thinking.
