Grade 9
In 2024, I participated in the ACF STEM Summer Camp, where I learned about Design Thinking & Entrepreneurship, Virtual Reality (VR), Web Programming, AI & Pygame Game Development, and Multi-Modal AI Storymaking.
In the Design Thinking & Entrepreneurship track, I collaborated with three teammates to develop startup ideas and design a prototype for a smart farm in space using Figma. Through team discussions, we shaped our ideas into a real business concept and presented our solution through a team pitch, an experience that grew my creativity, teamwork, and entrepreneurial mindset.
In the VR, Web Programming, and AI track, I built my first website using HTML, CSS, and JavaScript, and my first virtual reality site using A-Frame. These projects helped me develop foundational skills in web development and VR.
In the Pygame Game Development track, I learned the fundamentals of Python programming and game development. I mastered key concepts such as game loops, event handling, sprite management, keyboard input, graphics rendering, and collision detection. By applying these skills and my problem-solving abilities, I developed my own game, Frog Race.
In the Multi-Modal AI Storymaking track, I created a science fiction novel by combining multiple generative AI tools. I used ChatGPT to develop the story, DALLE to generate images, and Suno to compose background music, which taught me how different AI technologies can work together to support storytelling across multiple media.
This camp gave me a strong foundation in programming, artificial intelligence, design thinking, and entrepreneurship, and helped me grow as an innovator who can combine technical skills with creativity and collaboration.
