Did you love summer camp as a kid? Renew that love!
Join us at the Tech Museum of Innovation in
downtown San Jose and teach 2-9 weeks of a
science, engineering, or technology class to
aspiring scientists and engineers entering grades
4 through 8. Each summer, Galileo’s The Tech
Museum Summer Camps offer an amazing lineup of
science, engineering, and technology classes –
along with camp fun, teamwork, and
behind-the-scenes Museum explorations. Classes
typically use the Tech’s “Design Challenge”
methodology by encouraging kids to work together
in small groups and develop innovative solutions
to real-world engineering challenges.
As an educator, you will have the opportunity to
impart your expertise to the young and the
curious, impact kids in this unique environment,
and help deepen their love, interest, and passion
in science, technology, and the world around.
We are now hiring Lead Instructors for our 8 of our 14 classes:
Animation Sensation: Use Macromedia Flash to
bring an idea to the animated screen.
Claymation (new): Do you love Wallace and
Gromit? Make your own unique clay stop-motion movie!
Computer Programming: Learn how to program using computer language and logic!
Digital Video Masters: Calling all
Directors! Make your very own movie, film, or video.
Green Design: Solar Engineering (new): Harness
the power of the sun and use solar panels to create.
Lego Robotics: Build and program a Lego Robot using the newest NXT technology!
Video Game Design: Create your own video game, then play it with friends.
Web Architects: Design your own website!
Dates: The Tech Museum Summer Camps run from June
16, 2008 to August 15, 2008. Specific dates and
durations vary, depending on class.
Hours: approximately 8:30am to 5pm, Monday through Friday.
Pay: $700 to $800 per week of instruction as a
Lead Instructor. An additional stipend is
offered for curriculum development. Lead
Instructors are encouraged to refine the existing
class curriculum to make the class uniquely their
own. With our new classes, Lead Instructors will
help develop the entire class curriculum from scratch.
Typically, Lead Instructors have a Bachelor’s
degree and a strong background in a science or
engineering field. There are also other
potential possibilities for Instructors to teach
another class or to work as an Assistant
Instructor for other camp classes during our 9 weeks in session.
