Class experience

These are the students’ learning goals and activities over the course of five sessions:

— Day 1 - Set Up and Overview - Our primary goal for this day is to assist students in setting up Overwatch and to familiarize kids with our camp’s objectives. We start off the camp with an icebreaker to create a comfortable space for kids to get to know each other. In this session, we’ll concentrate on Overwatch’s goals and the Arcade: Capture the Flag mode.

— Day 2 - Hero Roles - Students will discover the different roles in the game and what each role does. They will then get to practice in a Custom: Control (King of the Hill) map.

— Day 3 - Team Composition and Synergy - What is a team comp and how do different heroes’ kits synergize? In this class, we’ll explore what makes a good team comp and how students can pick to make their team synergy strong. We will then practice in a Custom: Escort map game. 

— Day 4 - Map Types - The map can affect a player’s team’s chance of success and playmaking. Discover what makes each map unique through Custom: Assault map custom games. 

— Day 5 - Counterplay and Thinking Dynamically - In this session we will explore ways you can increase your team’s chance of winning by practicing counterplay. The class will practice in a Custom: Hybrid map custom game which combines knowledge from the  Assault and Escort maps to test each players’ critical thinking.
Connected Camps is a not-for-profit organization founded in 2015 with the mission to build a global online community where kids build, code, play, and learn from one another. Our programs are designed based on the extensive research in the learning sciences. The founders and leaders of Connected Camps, Mimi Ito and Katie Salen, are professors at the University of California, Irvine who specialize in the design of online learning experiences that are fun, social, and tied to academic outcomes. Learn more about the research behind Connected Camps at the Connected Learning Alliance resource site. 

One thing that makes our programs unique is our near-peer mentorship model. Our programs are led by young adults and college students, often with the help of high school volunteers. We hire counselors and coaches from top universities in computer science, game development, economics, and sports performance, and design and train them on how to facilitate project-based learning with younger kids. Our young instructors have the same passion for technology, games, and digital making as our learners, and take on the role of instructors, as well as fellow enthusiasts and relatable role models.

Internet safety is a top priority for us and our goal is to create a safe, connected community of learners that is moderated by our instructors. Throughout our programs we strive to educate our learners on internet safety and best practices for connecting online.

In our programs, our learners are often making friendships and connections with others in class and while we encourage positive online friendships we think it’s important to practice these principles of internet safety:

— Do NOT ask others to connect online outside of our programs without first confirming with your parents. Our programs are a safe, moderated space for learners to engage but we can’t moderate connections outside of our classes.
— Do NOT give away personal information which includes but is not limited to: your name, address, phone number, passwords, location, email address, and parental information.
— If an individual asks for personal information, you should inform a counselor or your parent for guidance.
