Your Child’s First Step Towards Publishing their own Mobile Apps

In this program, students will translate their prior understanding of programming concepts on the Scratch Platform into mobile Apps using the App Inventor Platform.

With a similar visual drag-and-drop interface as Scratch, App Inventor allows students to apply their computational thinking skills and creativity to create fully functional mobile Apps that run on mobile phones.

Students will have a paradigm shift in their mindset on mobile Apps; the mobile phone is no longer merely a gaming/entertainment device for the children. It is now a device that is used to demonstrate their creativity, apply their learnings from school and an avenue to stretch their thinking without boundaries.
