About this event

Basics X App Inventor 1 - Weekly Course for Ages 11 - 12

MOBILE PROGRAMMING WITH APP INVENTOR

Prerequisites: We welcome students who have completed Basics 4 A/B with us. For students who are at least 11 years old and have completed Primary 4 in the local school system or Year 4 in the international school system, no prior experience is necessary.

This course involves mobile programming and more complex data types with App Inventor.

With the rapid proliferation of smartphones and growing dominance of mobile usage, mobile programming presents one of the most relatable and relevant domains in which our students will apply their programming knowledge and skills. In this course, Code Campers will learn to decompose a mobile application into its component parts - buttons, labels, images, functionality, etc.; design a user interface that conveys the look and feel of their imagination; and code the behaviour that will govern how the user interacts with the app and how the app responds.

It sounds simple enough but mobile programming, despite being the most engaging, is also the most demanding domain within the Basics roadmap because it requires higher degrees of abstraction using complex data types. Code Campers will need to understand components (a complex data type known as an object which bundles Properties together), properties (types of variables that are bundled in a component), procedures (named sequences of code that perform a specific task), event handlers (routines that deal with an event), lists (an ordered collection of items), for loops (iterations through a list), and scope (the extent of visibility of variables within a program). Each of these are integral concepts in mobile programming and App Inventor.

At the end of this course, Code Campers will be able to design a simple user interface and build apps such as a simple game, a texting app and a painting app.

School Policies

We can't wait to welcome you on Campus! Before you arrive, here are some of our Campus policies that you need to be aware of.

MINIMUM CLASS SIZE

Please note that we require a minimum of 3 Code Campers to start a class. You will be fully refunded if the class minimum is not fulfilled.

MISSED CLASSES AND MAKE-UP CLASSES

SG Code Campus offers structured and outcome-driven courses to equip our Code Campers with the necessary programming proficiencies to progress through our learning roadmap. Full attendance for each course is important to ensure that students are able to progress smoothly in their learning journey.

For a missed lesson, the student will receive a video link to the lesson missed that will expire in two weeks, as well as any necessary materials used in class. Subject to the availability of the instructor, a 15-min consultation can be arranged after the student has covered the video and attempted any necessary exercises to clarify any student doubts.

CANCELLATIONS & REFUNDS
We strive to maintain a low instructor-to-student ratio for our courses to maximise the learning experience. Hence, seats are limited and we greatly value each and every seat that we offer. If you cancel your registration for any of our courses for any reason whatsoever, the following refund policy applies:

100% full refund if written notice of any cancellation is received by us at least 14 days before the start date of the course.
100% credit refund if written notice of any cancellation is received by us at least 7 days before the start date of the course.
No refund will be given if written notice of any cancellation is received by us less than 7 days before the start date of the course.

There will not be any refund or credit offered for physical classes that need to move online. We have continuously honed our conduct of online classes, and are confident that our online classes will still deliver a fruitful learning experience for the kids.

Please note that credit refunds are valid for 12 months from the date of issue, and can be applied to any other SG Code Campus course (subject to availability) within the validity period. If a course of a lower value is selected as a replacement, no refund of the difference in course fees will be given.

WHAT TO BRING

We provide all necessary equipment for students in the classroom, including a Macbook and other hardware devices where applicable. Your child should bring a water bottle and a jacket, as it can get cold in some of our classrooms.

PHOTOGRAPHY & VIDEOGRAPHY
Please note that photographs and/or videos may be taken during classes or events for educational, training and marketing purposes.
If you do not wish for you or your child to be featured in any educational, training and/or marketing materials, please notify us via email at enquiries@sgcodecampus.com, prior to the start of your child’s course with us.
