Our Summer OWL Immersive
The OpenWise Learning (OWL) Immersive is the first program our Scholars take part in when they join us at OWL. We select applications from students ages 11 to 13 to participate in our three-week immersive program. We assess baseline skills and teach basic, intermediate, and advanced technology skills. Additionally, we integrate social justice and ecological justice curriculum through the introduction of lessons on the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).
Scholars learn collaborative work lessons through teamwork. Skills and knowledge are reinforced through good-natured competition and gamification. The Scholars in the program are given a new Raspberry Pi computer with a monitor, keyboard, and mouse to use in their study and exploration during the program.
