What the week actually is

A STEM summer camp is worth the money only if the child comes home able to explain what they built. Ellis Abel Learns runs on one habit — staying in a hard problem past the point it stops being fun — and every project in the week is chosen because it cannot be finished by guessing.

Day by day

  1. Pick the problem and write the prediction
  2. First build, first failure
  3. Diagnose what actually went wrong
  4. Rebuild and test against the prediction
  5. Showcase: explain it to the room
