Breakout Mentors holds an annual showcase for our students to present a project they created with their mentor. The 2018 showcase in Los Altos was a huge success – 6 students presented and exemplified how personalized Breakout Mentors is for each student.
The ages of the presenters ranged from 8 to 15. The projects were coded in Java, Python, Scratch, and HTML / CSS / JavaScript.
The variety of the projects was truly impressive:
- A 13 year-old pulled information from ESPN to analyze the best players for his fantasy football team
- An 11 year-old made a multi-level Mouse Maze with traps and moving obstacles
- A 15 year-old made an evolution simulation that uses a neural network “brain” to find food
- A 12 year-old made a beautiful interactive art project featuring a tiger in a randomly generated terrain
Thank you everyone who participated. Keep up the impressive work!
