Summer science camps for young people are full of different activities that develop children's motivation, to learn and get enthusiastic about natural science subjects in schools. The main meaning of the camps is to increase interest in science and develop a positive relationship with nature as well as environmental responsibility. One of the ways to implement these activities is to work with digital technologies. During the camp we used measuring equipment that supports the scientific character of the camp and mobile devices like tablets as working tools and a source of information in connection with the Internet.
Keywords: science camp, digital technologies, measuring equipment, tablets
