Mattapan Tech's Summer Program For Children And Teens

Mattapan Tech’s Summer Educational Program includes basic electronics, computer coding and robotics.

* The coding program is designed to introduce young individuals, from 8-11 years old, to basic coding skills needed to write detailed instructions for a computer at an early age. The participants will learn how to write basic programs, make their own computer games and more.

*The electronics program is designed to teach participants, from the ages of 12-15, about basic electronic components and their functions: transistors, inductors, resistors, capacitors, integrated circuits. Participants will also learn how to build, troubleshoot and repair electronic devices. Each participant will have the choice to build a radio, a TV or a robot to bring home after the completion of the program.
