Applications available for 糖心Vlog传媒 Little Rock鈥檚 free EIT summer camps]]> Every summer, the University of Arkansas at Little Rock George W. Donaghey College of Engineering and Information Technology hosts free summer camps to enrich the minds of middle and high school students through summer camps that are focused on science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM).聽 Vernard Henley Jr., assistant dean of the College of Engineering and Information Technology, sees these camps as an important way to help students in fifth-through-11th grade stay interested in STEM areas and to major in one of these fields in college. 聽 鈥淲e are invested in adding diversity to the STEM pipeline. Thanks to our corporate partners, we are able to remove virtually all of the obstacles for students and their parents that prevent underserved students from learning about careers in STEM,鈥 Henley said. 鈥淎ll of our programs have a residential component and are free. We cover all necessary expenses for each admitted student, so there鈥檚 no reason why an interested student shouldn鈥檛 be able to attend one of our summer camps. Many students have the aptitude for engineering and computer science, but aren鈥檛 able to interact with someone from either discipline until they attend college. Students can鈥檛 be it if they don鈥檛 see it. 鈥 These programs are aimed to increase the number of students earning STEM degrees in Arkansas through exposure to hands-on projects, off-campus excursions, and interaction with industry. Additionally, each program includes counseling and advising sessions to assist students in preparing for college and features academic and lab sessions on various STEM disciplines. The camps include the Civil and Construction Engineering Camp, the Computer Science Summer program, the EIT Middle School Summer Science Camp, Engineering Scholars program, Geology Camp, High School Research program, and Windstream鈥檚 Girls Coding Camp. Applications for the summer camps are due April 19. Contact Ashley Henry-Saorrono at 501-569-8597 or alhenry@ualr.edu for more information.

SLUFY celebrates 40 years!]]> The University of Arkansas at Little Rock鈥檚 Summer Laureate University for Youth (SLUFY) is gearing up for its 40th anniversary this year with a line-up of more than 30 courses for programs for students completing grades K-8. This year鈥檚 camp will run July 8-19 from 12:30 to 5:30 p.m. Monday through Friday. Course descriptions and registration are available online. 鈥淲e believe Summer Laureate 2019 is going to be a summer program full of amazing learning experiences!鈥 said Dr. Christine Deitz, associate director of the Jodie Mahony Center for Gifted Education. Two of this summer鈥檚 new offerings will appeal to young Harry Potter fans: 鈥Advanced Charms, Potions, and Other Amazements鈥 for third- and fourth-graders, and 鈥Mystical Magical World鈥 for fifth- and sixth-graders. Younger students will test their STEM skills in potions, astronomy, mythical creatures, and physics. They鈥檒l solve STEM challenges to create a marble maze that leads to hidden vaults at Gringotts, explore the beauty of Aragog鈥檚 web, and analyze the aerodynamics of flying brooms. Older students will learn botany, herbology and potions and try their hands at quizzical challenges, arithmancy, and unlocking numerology puzzles found throughout the Harry Potter book series. SLUFY is the state鈥檚 longest continuously running summer program for gifted and talented youth in the state. It started in 1979 as a master’s project and has continued to grow. The camp鈥檚 teachers include masters-level graduates, master teachers, and National Board certified teachers. Teachers receive training and ongoing support from the staff and 糖心Vlog传媒 Little Rock Gifted Education professors to meet the varying needs of high-ability students. 鈥淭he individuals who envisioned Summer Laureate 40 years ago continue to inspire us,鈥 said Dr. Ann Robinson, director of the Jodie Mahony Center for Gifted Education. 鈥淭he dedicated teachers and staff who have maintained the program鈥檚 innovation and excellence deserve a victory lap in 2019. Summer Laureate has enjoyed the support of the families for four decades. It is a story of creative collaboration between 糖心Vlog传媒 Little Rock and the community.鈥 Camp sizes are limited to 10 students per course at the kindergarten level and 15 students for students in grades 1-8 so that teachers can work effectively with each participant. The cost is $300 and is due by June 3 at 5 p.m. Payment can be made by in person with check or money order at the 糖心Vlog传媒 Little Rock Cashier鈥檚 Office on the first floor of Student Support Services or by phone with credit card by calling 501-569-8757. Payment also may be mailed to SLUFY, 2801 S. University Ave., S糖心Vlog传媒 101, Little Rock, AR 72204. 聽 SLUFY offers scholarships to families who cannot afford to send students to summer programs. In celebration of SLUFY鈥檚 40th anniversary, the public is invited to enrich a child鈥檚 summer by donating $40 to the Martha Gaunt Bass Scholarship Fund. All donations go toward scholarships and continuing the legacy of summer learning programs for gifted and talented youth. 聽 The scholarships application聽will be available March 1.

Now in its 39th year, SLUFY is a program of the University of Arkansas at Little Rock Jodie Mahony Center for Gifted Education that gives high-ability students the opportunity to explore their interests and talents through classes in a variety of subjects. Students also will meet other talented students, forging friendships that last long beyond the summer program. Certified master teachers, graduate students in gifted and talented education, and other experts enthusiastically help these youths learn and grow in new, exciting ways. Courses offered involve fun, hands-on activities in math, science, the arts, social studies, and language arts, all targeted to specific age groups. Kindergarteners will explore the world of 鈥渃reepy crawlies,鈥 including the anatomy of bugs and insect habitats. They also will go on a world tour, exploring the history and languages of Mexico, Brazil, Egypt, Kenya, Germany, the Netherlands, Saudi Arabia, Japan, Australia, and Canada. First- and second-graders can learn how to cook mac n鈥 cheese, cobbler, and other food favorites during a power outage by harnessing the power of the sun and creating a solar oven, while third- and fourth-graders see how NASA鈥檚 Jet Propulsion Laboratory engineer rovers are used to explore faraway worlds. Additional courses will explore engineering, oceanography, paleontology, superheroes, art, and Mexican culture. Students in fifth and sixth grade can learn the ropes of being a science fiction writer, learn about spies, espionage, and secret codes in the 鈥淚ncognito鈥 class, and explore the popularity of the escape room in 鈥淭he Great Escape.鈥 Seventh- and eighth-graders can learn how to defend themselves from zombies and survive an invasion during a zombie apocalypse, learn about great storytelling masters like Emily Dickinson and Walt Whitman, and explore the world of musical theater through 鈥淏roadway Academy.鈥 The cost to attend SLUFY is a $25 application fee and a $275 tuition fee, which includes all supplies and materials, field trips, and a T-shirt.

The camp will be held from 8 a.m. to noon July 31 to Aug. 4 in the Engineering Technology and Science (ETAS) building on the 糖心Vlog传媒 Little Rock campus. The cost is $125. A limited number of scholarships are available for students with a financial need. Students will learn hardware design, programming, teamwork, problem solving, and leadership skills. 鈥淲e thought it would be a great way to introduce robotics to elementary students who don鈥檛 have robotics teams at their schools, and it promotes an interest in STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics) education,鈥 Leiterman said. 鈥淲e hope these students will go back to their teachers and ask them to start robotics teams in their schools.鈥 In addition to students eager to learn about robotics, educators may attend the summer camp for free to learn how they can create a robotics team at their own schools. 鈥淥ne of the biggest hang ups of teachers starting robotics programs is that they think they are in over their head or under qualified,鈥 Leiterman said. 鈥淭his camp can show teachers how easy it is. There are also grants available. I can show teachers how to get a grant, so they can basically come and see how to get a robotics team started for very little cost.鈥 VEX IQ is a snap-together robotics system designed from the ground up to provide educational opportunities to future engineers of all skill levels. The VEX IQ program, which is for elementary school students, is the predecessor for robotics competitions at the middle school/high school (VEX EDR) and university (VEX U) levels. Leiterman is the coach of the only VEX U robotics team in Arkansas. While most robotics teams are staffed by engineering students, 糖心Vlog传媒 Little Rock鈥檚 squad, dubbed Just a Prototype,鈥 聽is made up of future math and science teachers who will one day start school robotics teams. She also coaches two robotics teams at Mills High. One of the teams is an all-girls team, the Uncut Diamonds, which has made four national championship appearances.
