    • Game Design & Coding

    • In Person/On Campus

    Can you imagine a bridge that is not only built, but programmed? Or have you ever wondered how a video game is created?

    In this course, children are introduced to the world of programming and computational thinking through engaging, age-appropriate, and interactive computer-based activities. By using modern visual programming environments, they learn to create their own digital games, design virtual structures, and explore the logic behind smart technologies and basic robotics concepts.

    Through hands-on creation, experimentation, and teamwork, students strengthen essential skills such as logical reasoning, creativity, and problem-solving. They see the direct results of their ideas on the screen, which builds confidence and motivation. No prior experience is required — only curiosity, imagination, and a desire to learn.

    Introduction to Web Design (Greek)

    • Online

    This course introduces students to basic web design using HTML (Hypertext Markup Language) and CSS (Cascading Style Sheets). The course does not require any prior knowledge of HTML or web design. Throughout the course students are introduced to planning and designing effective web pages; implementing web pages by writing HTML and CSS code; enhancing web pages with the use of page layout techniques, text formatting, graphics, images, and multimedia; and producing a functional, multi-page website.

    Students should have a general background in using a computer, managing files, and a basic knowledge of the Internet. Students should also be able to navigate to and within a website using a web browser such as Chrome, Firefox, Internet Explorer, or Safari. Students do not need to purchase any software for this course.

    It is recommended that 5th & 6th grade students have completed the Scratch Middle School course.

    League of English Superheroes 

    • Online

    Save humanity—join the League of English Superheroes! Just like Superman and Batman, students are called on to complete exciting missions to help protect the world. In this intensive, 10-lesson English course, students work together in a creative learning community and use the world of superheroes to strengthen their English language skills through storytelling, discussion, and hands-on challenges. The course is designed especially for students who want to build confidence and fluency in English, including those preparing for exams.

    Throughout the course, students explore superhero stories using ideas from literature, science, psychology, technology, and social studies. Each “mission” helps students build vocabulary, improve grammar, and develop creativity, critical thinking, and communication skills in English. By reading, watching, discussing, and creating, students learn how English is used to explain ideas, tell stories, and persuade an audience.

    Students practice different types of writing, including stories, descriptions, informational texts, and opinion pieces. Using a variety of materials such as texts, videos, images, and short articles, they analyze superhero worlds and then create their own original characters, settings, and plots. Interactive discussions, debates, and short presentations help students develop spoken fluency and confidence using English in real-world situations.

    Beyond live lessons, students complete guided activities that allow them to apply what they learn in creative and meaningful ways. They may write origin stories, explore ethical dilemmas, design superhero-themed projects, or solve problems connected to their imaginary worlds. By the end of the course, students “graduate” from the League of English Superheroes by creating their own secret superhero identity and taking part in an original final challenge.

    Lessons include interactive instruction, group work, independent tasks, and feedback from the instructor. Cooperative learning and positive peer feedback are key parts of the course, helping students grow as writers, storytellers, and confident English users in a supportive environment.

    Learning Objectives

    • Read, analyze, and discuss superhero fiction and related texts in English.
    • Practice writing narratives, descriptive texts, informational writing, and opinion pieces in English.
    • Use course strategies to create multiple original works of creative writing.
    • Take part in the writing workshop process by planning, drafting, editing, and revising their work.
    • Develop confidence in speaking and presenting ideas in English through discussion and presentations.

    Nanotechnology: Billionths at Work!

    • In Person/On Campus

    So small yet so powerful … We cannot see it, but it can change our everyday life! “Nano” indicates something small, something minute, about a billion times less than a meter. In these dimensions materials can go ‘crazy’ and display unique, unprecedented properties. How does the size of a material affect its properties? How do some plants manage to repel water and clean themselves? How can I make my clothes stain resistant? How does the gecko lizard walk on the ceiling? How can a robot climb onto a glass window? How do all this relate to bio-mimicry and everyday life?

    Nanotechnology is linked to many disciplines, such as physics, biology, chemistry and mathematics, to produce useful applications with innovative properties. Through a series of approaches, including problem-solving, designing and conducting experiments, games, studying natural and artificial nanomaterials, searching for information, modeling, and group activities, students are introduced to the exciting world of science and technology at a nanoscale!

    Robotics and Clever Control Systems

    • In Person/On Campus

    Are robots smarter than humans? Will automated control systems eventually become clever enough to control us? In this course, students embark on a journey into the world of technology, engineering, algorithmic thinking and programming. They learn how to design, build, and program their own robots and clever control systems using LEGO EV3 Mindstorms and Arduino UNO.


    In the course’s robotics segment, students delve into the capabilities of LEGO EV3 Mindstorms, a versatile robotics kit renowned for its ease of use. Through engaging activities and challenges, students learn to assemble robots, utilize sensors, and program behaviors using a Scratch 3-based programming environment tailored for EV3. They discover how to navigate obstacles, follow lines, and complete tasks, all while honing their problem-solving and critical-thinking skills.


    In the course’s automation segment, students explore the world of electronics and clever control systems using Arduino UNO, a popular microcontroller platform. With Arduino, students learn to interface sensors, motors, and other peripherals, enabling them to automate processes and create clever control systems like an automated plant watering system or a home security system. Using a Scratch 3-based programming environment adapted for Arduino, students write code to control inputs and outputs, create responsive behaviors, and bring their projects to life.


    By the end of the course, students emerge with a deeper understanding of robotics, automation, and programming, equipped with the skills and knowledge to tackle real-world challenges in the ever-evolving field of technology.


    Learning Objectives

    • Develop construction skills for building robots using LEGO technic pieces, including structural stability, gear mechanisms and attachment methods, and assimilate the basic features of the Arduino UNO board including digital and analog input/output pins, power supply options, and communication interfaces.
    • Understand the use and different types of sensors (e.g. touch, color, ultrasonic, and gyro sensors) to gather and use sensor data to create responsive behaviors in robots, such as obstacle avoidance, line following, and object detection.
    • Learn basic principles of electronics, including voltage, current, resistance, circuits, and components such as resistors, LEDs, and how to connect and use various sensors with Arduino boards, including temperature, light, motion sensors and ultrasonic sensors.
    • Develop problem-solving skills to diagnose issues, troubleshoot hardware or software problems, and debug Arduino or robot projects effectively, utilizing the basic safety practices when working with electronics.
