Mobile App Dev - A
- Apps developed for Android phones or tablets
- Introduction to app-building program
|
We are using the
Mobile Computer Science Principles course as the framework for this module.
Students will develop apps for Android mobile devices using the
MIT App Inventor programming tool.
Unit 1: Getting Started
We have done the early work yesterday, so we'll start at lesson
1.4 App Inventor Setup
- Login using your google account, if this is your first time on this site.
- Set up the Android emulator on your computer to use for testing:
- Click on the 3rd bullet: Android Emulator.
- Step 1 has already been done. (Thanks Sue!)
- We will work through the rest of the steps together in class
- IF you have an Android mobile phone or tablet, follow the set-up instructions for the WiFi connection (the first bullet item), as well
- Test that your set up works! Once it does, check around and see if one of your neighbors needs some help.
Unit 2: Introduction to Mobile Apps & Pair Programming
- Start developing your first app by going through the
2.2 I have a Dream Tutorial
- For fun, take the Self-Check quiz at the end of the tutorial.

3D Printing
- Visit to GD lab
- 3D printing and scanning demos
- 3D Object Contest
|
Let's make some 3D objects!
- Using the TinkerCad program, design an object to be printed.
MAKE SURE YOU USE FIREFOX, not Chrome for this!
- Use your google account/email to sign up for TinkerCad.
Note: the password has to be 8 characters, and have a number and special symbol
- You can play around on your own, or go through the
lesson tutorials, or both!
- You can save your working object files (as .stl files) to your desktop and use this
3D Viewer to "look" at them.
3D Object Contest:
- Students will work in groups of two or three to create one object.
But you must TAKE TURNS at the controls!
- When time is up, copy your final .stl object file to one of your named folders on the Z drive.
Include all group member names in the name of your object file.
- The winning object will be the one that is the most
- Interesting
- Fun
- Creative
- Fully connected in 360 degrees
