Digital Media Academy, a summer camp for children (7-13), teens (13-18) and adults, will be offered at Stanford University in Palo Alto, Calif., from June 22-August 21. DMA will also offer summer 2009 programs at the University of Chicago, Harvard (Boston), George Washington University (Washington, D.C.), Brown (Providence, R.I.), Dartmouth (Hanover, N.H.) and several University of California campuses.

The five-day courses can be taken individually or combined for multi-week certifications. At DMA, children will be taught how to design and create videogames, movies and Websites.
