We are passionate about introducing children of all ages to the wonders and benefits of the sciences and technology, and offer camps ranging from film to computers and robotics. Summer computer camps, film camps, robotics camps, science summer camps, cyber camps - we can help you find the summer camp that’s right for your child.
Exciting news! A former camper, Ian Cinnamon, who formerly attended our Los Angeles Summer Camps and San Francisco Bay Area Summer Camps has written his own book titled Game Programming for the Evil Genius.
I wrote a forward in the book, and we have also featured Ian in our 2008 Summer Computer Camp Catalog. Here is an excerpt from our catalog: “Ian has attended four summers at iD Tech Camps and is currently a high school sophomore. A 15-hear old phenom who got his start at iD Tech Camps, Ian has been programming for over 7 years and is certified in both Java and C++. Ian has recently written a book titled Programming Video Games for the Evil Genius (McGraw Hill). Ian provides strategies, code, and insider’s programming advice on how to build and test video games with ease.”
I want to congratulate Ian on his latest accomplishment. I know we helped Ian a little bit along the way by providing great teachers and hands-on instruction in our summer computer programming camps and summer video game design courses.
But Ian has shown that being an author of sophisticated tech topics knows no age boundaries. Way to go, Ian! We are proud of you!
