Virtual Science Camps

Designed for 6^th through 12^th graders, our virtual science camps incorporate a demonstrations of procedural wet lab techniques followed by discussion of relevant concepts and analysis of results. Because the camp is live, students are able to interact with each other and the instructor in real time.

These camps are conducted on Zoom. To ensure your child  is familiar with the platform and fully prepared to join, we'll send out a detailed walk-through of Zoom before camp starts (See also our Technology Instructions).

Also, to help facilitate these virtual summer camps, particpants will:

• Receive a kit: Inside the kit, we include materials to complete labs at home. These kits can either be shipped or picked up at a DNALC location. (Kits are not required for BioCoding.)
• Split sessions: The virtual science camp splits the students' time between small breakout groups and a large group containing the whole class.
• Join "Parent Participation" activities: At the end of the Fun with DNA, World of Enzymes, and Forensic Detectives camps, students can invite their parents or guardians to join their class and participate in fun activities.

With our On-Demand science summer camps, students have the opportunity to join at any time throughout the summer—from any location. These online virtual summer camps are self-paced, allowing students to have flexibility and control over their learning.

We provide pre-recorded daily lessons and prepared materials that can be completed independently or together as a class. With the camp, students will also have access to a DNALC educator, who can assist with any questions as well as troubleshooting labs and sharing results.

Virtual On-Demand camps include a kit, which features everything from lab materials to camp-specific workbooks and procedures. For your convenience, these kits can either be shipped straight to your home or picked up at your nearest DNALC location.
