SUMMARY:Black Educators' Association - Dalhousie Math Camp 2026
DESCRIPTION:The BEA/DAL Math Camp offers African-Nova Scotian junior high school youth\, a math-based university experience\, to open doorways to STEM careers. The campers are broken into two gender-balanced groups that alternate between Mathematics sessions and Coding sessions. Each session has a black school teacher paired with a university teacher as instructors. A puzzle-based approach is proposed for the Math sessions. In these sessions campers will explore topics like logic puzzles\, counting based card tricks\, binary numbers & error correcting codes\, and the application of algebra to solve puzzles. The Coding sessions use Scratch (see: scratch.mit.edu)\, a programming environment suitable for youth. The coding sessions introduce the campers to the basic programming structures (assignment\, loops and decisions)\, that they use to create a game or animation. The campers also use their programming knowledge to program Lego Robots to perform specified tasks. \nContact:  Nauzer Kalyaniwalla  nauzerk@cs.dal.ca
