Ages 10 — 13
In-person at Georgia Tech
What makes a city sustainable? In this week of City Lab, campers will explore how cities can be designed to reduce environmental impact, protect natural resources, and promote healthy communities.
From green buildings and renewable energy to recycling systems and urban farming, campers will take on hands-on design challenges that promote climate-conscious and people-friendly cities.
Using LEGO SPIKE robotics, they’ll imagine and prototype innovative solutions for a more sustainable future.
Campers will learn to:
Understand core concepts of sustainable design in urban environments
Explore topics like green energy, waste reduction, and eco-friendly building
Use LEGO SPIKE robotics, digital tools, and creative materials to build working models
Learn how real-world examples in Atlanta and beyond are making communities better for people and the planet
Collaborate with peers to solve real-world environmental challenges
At the end of the week, parents and caregivers are invited for a showcase of the campers’ creations!
What to Bring:
Campers should bring a water bottle, snacks, and lunch.
