From camp to classroom: Summer robotics boosts students’ STEM skills

IGT Coding and Robotics Rock camp equips C’bean youth for new semester

International Game Technology (IGT), a global leader in gaming, completed its fourth annual IGT Coding and Robotics Rock Camp for Caribbean youth.

Now, participating students are back to school and energised for the new year, poised to become innovators and problem-solvers.

IGT partnered with the Mona Geoinformatics Institute (MGI) at the University of the West Indies to host the virtual camp, under the inspiring theme ‘Climate Action: Think It! Code It! Solve It’.

The camp, an extension of IGT’s global After School Advantage (ASA) programme, consisted of introductory (Level 1) and intermediate (Level 2) programmes. 

A total of 72 students from five Caribbean countries – Barbados, St Kitts and Nevis, St Maarten, Jamaica, and Trinidad & Tobago – participated in the virtual camp.
