From June 29 to July 3, 2026, Eric and Xiao successfully led a five‑day Scratch Summer Camp designed to introduce students to foundational programming concepts through hands‑on project creation. Arjun supported the camp each day as a teaching assistant. Sessions began at 3:30 PM and lasted about an hour and a half, followed by an extended Q&A period that provided individualized guidance for students who needed additional help. Throughout the week, Eric and Xiao also dedicated extra hours outside of class to review and correct homework, answer student questions, troubleshoot project issues, and support students in developing their personal Scratch creations
Day 5 — Project Completion & Individual Problem Solving (July 3)
On the final day, students completed their projects with instructor support. Xiao and Eric helped them finalize scripts, polish interactions, and resolve remaining bugs. Arjun provided one‑on‑one assistance to students who needed help with logic flow or sprite behavior. The session concluded with students showcasing their completed projects, demonstrating the skills they developed throughout the week. After class, instructors continued offering individualized troubleshooting and feedback to ensure every student successfully finished their game.
