SUMMARY:Basic Design For Kids
DESCRIPTION:Title: Basic Design for Kids: Where Art Meets Geometry \nDescription:\nWhat happens when creativity meets math? In this hands-on workshop\, students explore shape\, color\, and composition to understand how artists and designers use geometry to build harmony and structure. Through guided design exercises\, children learn to think like both scientists and creators—observing\, experimenting\, and inventing. \nFacilitated by Prof. Dr. Pelin SARIOĞLU ERDOĞDU\, a professor and founder of PSE Studio\, this session blends design education and visual learning to nurture spatial awareness and imagination. Participants will use paper\, pencils\, markers and rulers to create their own 2D compositions inspired by design principles such as balance\, rhythm\, and contrast. \nThis workshop encourages creative confidence and cross-disciplinary thinking\, showing how STEM and the arts work together to inspire new ideas. No previous art or design experience is needed. \nIdeal for: Grades 4-8\nDuration: 60 minutes\nFacilitator: Prof. Dr. Pelin SARIOĞLU ERDOĞDU\, Founder of PSE Studio\nWebsite: https://psestud.io/workshops

SUMMARY:Coding with Python - A Six-Week Course
DESCRIPTION:The Richard Montgomery High School robotics team\, Rocket Robotics\, is excited to offer a free\, 6-week coding course for middle school students\, designed to introduce beginners to the fundamentals of programming and spark interest in programming and robotics. This hands-on course will cover the fundamentals of coding using one of the most popular programming languages\, Python. Students will receive guided instruction over the 6-session course which will help them understand key concepts (such as basic Python syntax\, working with and manipulating data\, control structures like loops and if statements\, and creating reusable methods) and prepare them to further advance their coding skills. \nExperienced high school mentors will guide the participants\, providing personalized support and encouragement. With each session building on the last\, students will not only gain a solid foundation in Python programming that they can apply in robotics and other coding projects\, but also the confidence to explore further in the world of technology and robotics. Whether you’re new to coding or looking to strengthen your skills\, this course will provide a supportive and engaging environment to get started with Python. \nStudents are requested to bring their own laptop computers if possible. If they cannot\, a limited number of laptops will be available for student use during the course. \nClass is offered on 10/15\, 10/22\, 10/29\, 11/5\, 11/12\, 11/19

SUMMARY:AI IRL: Real Talk for Teens
DESCRIPTION:AI IRL: Real Talk for Teens is a four-session discussion series built around real AI headlines. Each session starts with a short news story\, separates fact from myth\, introduces one practical skill to try\, and opens the floor for conversation guided by teens’ questions. \nParticipants build practical\, responsible AI habits: verifying claims and sources\, recognizing bias and misinformation\, writing task-appropriate prompts\, crediting AI assistance when required\, and protecting privacy online. The final session includes a look at AI’s environmental impact\, tying into this year’s Maryland STEM Festival theme of ENERGY. \nEach session stands alone\, so participants can attend any or all and leave with something they can use right away for schoolwork\, early work experiences and resumes\, creative projects\, or daily life. Phones and laptops are welcome\, and snacks are provided. \nEvent runs from 10/22 through 11/12

SUMMARY:AI IRL: Real Talk for Teens
DESCRIPTION:AI IRL: Real Talk for Teens is a four-session discussion series built around real AI headlines. Each session starts with a short news story\, separates fact from myth\, introduces one practical skill to try\, and opens the floor for conversation guided by teens’ questions. \nParticipants build practical\, responsible AI habits: verifying claims and sources\, recognizing bias and misinformation\, writing task-appropriate prompts\, crediting AI assistance when required\, and protecting privacy online. The final session includes a look at AI’s environmental impact\, tying into this year’s Maryland STEM Festival theme of ENERGY. \nEach session stands alone\, so participants can attend any or all and leave with something they can use right away for schoolwork\, early work experiences and resumes\, creative projects\, or daily life. Phones and laptops are welcome\, and snacks are provided. \nEvent runs from 10/22 through 11/12
