Camp Invention At-Home for Military-Connected Children Camp Invention is a one-week summer program for children entering grades K-6 that, in a typical year, engages more than 130,000 children each summer to develop creativity, inventive thinking, and problem-solving skills through hands-on Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math (STEM) content. It is a program of the National Inventors Hall of Fame (NIHF), which was founded in 1973 in partnership with the United States P...atent and Trademark Office whose support continues today. This year, funding from DoD STEM will provide the one-week Camp Invention At-Home program for 200 military-connected students in collaboration with DoD STEM and AEOP (https://www.invent.org/connect/dod-stem). NIHF’s 2021 Camp Invention curricula, Recharge, will be implemented for this effort. This curriculum was piloted both in-person and in virtual settings during summer 2020 for national implementation in summer 2021. The program is comprised of the following four modules: Duck Chuck, Open Mic, SolarBot, and Road Rally (video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0BKMzw88ti4). Individual program kits will be shipped to each registrant’s home and will include all the materials needed to participate in the program. Over the course of the week, students may tune in to virtual learning sessions hosted by teachers who will guide them as they explore, collaborate, and learn about the innovation process. Children will also be given the opportunity to work offline, developing STEM and 21st Century competency skills at their own pace by following the detailed and illustrative instructions provided to every participant. #milkids #milfam
