The aim of this course is to allow participants with little or no programming experience to get started with Android App development. Through the development of various Apps, the students will learn many important computational thinking concepts.
Say 'good-bye' to mind-boggling programming course and begin a fun-filled coding journey with us. This course demystifies the whole process with a simple web-based development platform that uses drag-and-drop blocks to create apps. Anyone can start developing apps within a few minutes and the complexity of the apps can be scaled with just a little bit of effort. This platform is ideal for those with little or no programming experience, but still want to jump onto the App Development Bandwagon. Here are the list of Apps that you will be create:. |

App 1: Talk To Me This is a basic app that introduces participants to the basics of using this unique development platform. In this app, the students will learn how to create some simple user-interface elements like text-boxes and buttons. They will also learn how to use the accelerometer sensor in the phone to detect the phones subtle movements. |
App 2: Ball Bounce This is a simple game where we start with a simple ball bouncing off the walls of the phone. We then extend it to 2 balls and learn how to keep a score of the number of times the 2 balls collide. |
App 3: Doodler This is a fun app where we you will learn to create a doodling app that allows you to create your own work-of-art. We will add in some cool functionality like changing colours, adjusting the brush width, using different background images and also using a picture taken-on-the-spot using the phones camera function. Finally, we will also learn how to save and restore images onto the phone's memory. |
App 4: QuizMe This app is a great way to start developing your own e-learning based platform. We will learn how to create a simple quiz and allow the user to select a possible answer. Based on the selections, they will get a score at the end of the quiz. |
App 5: Theme-Based Info App This app is all about creating an app that can effectively replace a website. We will look at how to create multiple pages and navigate between those pages based on the user’s selection. The students can choose their own theme and start working on this app once the basic concepts are explained. |
