theodp writes "Last July, Inside Higher Ed presciently predicted that 2013 would be the year of the Massively Open Online Camp. GeekWire's Blair Hanley Frank reports that O'Reilly-spinoff MAKE Magazine is partnering with Google to run Maker Camp, a 30-day online summer camp for kids who love DIY projects and learning about how things are made. Camp started Monday, but it's not too late to join the fun."

    Seriously - a virtual online camp? A "field trip" hangout?

    How about a REAL camp with real, hands-on experiences for kids, Google? How about some first-hand exposure to these amazing real-world makers?
