The fourth leg of the science camps organized by TÜBİTAK TÜSSİDE with the sponsorship of Filli Boya and the support of the Ministry of National Education, Istanbul Provincial Directorate of National Education.

The "Filli Boya Science Camp", which aims to provide children with superior potential within the scope of special education with a scientific perspective, to support their self-confidence and to look to the future with hope, included a series of trainings and practices to support the academic and psychological development of children in the 13-14 age group between August 07-11 and August 14-18, 2017.

A total of 60 students, 30 girls and 30 boys, will participate in the Science Camp between August 07-11 and August 14-18, 2017. This year, specially talented children studying at Science and Art Centers were also included. In the 4th stage of the project, children had the opportunity to observe scientists working at institutes such as TÜBİTAK National Metrology Institute, TÜBİTAK MAM Materials Institute, Earth and Marine Sciences Institute in their working environments, chat about their work and conduct experiments together. In addition, the students, who will receive encryption training with the TÜBİTAK BİLGEM researcher team, carried out workshops and educational games mainly in the fields of science and mathematics. Within the scope of the program, the children also visited İzmit Science Center and took part in strategy development, team and coordination games and artistic activities throughout the camp.

Every Youth is a Color, Future is Colored by Science

The project aims to enable children to gain a different experience by going outside the environment they are in and to integrate them into life through teamwork. The camp education program is designed not for individual games and competitive practices, but to emphasize team spirit by working together in harmony. The main goal of this project is to increase students' sense of curiosity about science and to emphasize the importance of research and discovery.

In addition, the Science Camps organized in cooperation with TÜBİTAK TÜSSİDE, ASPB and Filli Boya received the first prize in the International The Peer Awards Competition.
