Because the Splash! programs usually offered by various colleges and universities have been canceled during the shutdown, the sponsor of Splash! is offering Rainstorm — a free, two-day program of online courses for high-school students taught by undergraduates over the May 30-31 weekend, noon-5PM each day. Registration is open until May 13, and classes will be filled on a lottery basis if there is not room for all. For more information, email cloud@learningu.org. STEM-related courses in the catalog include:
- It’s Just Rocket Science
- Glass is Cool: Innovation, Manufacturing and Recycle
- Code like a pro – Java and BDD
- Why is Oxygen So Special?
- Identifying Good Research
- Computers and Ethics
