App Inventor

Grades 2nd To 4th

In this class kids create their very own Android apps for use on mobile and tablet devices! With an interface similar to Scratch, MIT’s user-friendly App Inventor system enables kids to learn how to design a GUI (graphical user interface), where to place buttons and text, and how to strategically use multiple screens. A working xylophone, Whack-a-Mole, and our version of flappy bird are just a few of the games that can be made (and played) in this exciting tech course! Previous experience coding with Scratch or similar highly recommended.
