Introduction to Mobile Apps

Students are introduced to the mobile apps course and the AI app Inventor tool and its program structure and blocks.

App Build: Recreate a Popular App

Students apply their knowledge of components, images, buttons, text boxes, and layouts to recreate a screen of a popular app. 

App Build: Currency Converter

Students apply their knowledge of components, events, state, conditionals, and more to build a currency converter app. 

Components and the Stylesheet

Students are introduced to components, the backbone of building apps. They learn about the stylesheet object and how to add custom style attributes to their apps.

Events and State

Students learn how to use state values and how to update the state of their app in various ways to create quick, dynamic programs. They will learn how mathematical equations and string methods can be used to alter values as the user interacts with their programs.

Buttons and Text Boxes

Students use the TouchableHighlight to create "buttons" that add a layer of functionality. Students also learn about how to create and use text boxes in their programs.

Creating Multiple Screens

Students learn how to take their apps to the next level by adding in functionality that allows for content and interactivity on multiple screens.

Using Collections of Data

Students learn how to use arrays to organize and use larger data sets in their programs. They’ll learn how to use mapping to quickly assign styling and layouts to large amounts of data.

Advanced Layouts and Images

Students learn how to add images to their apps to further customize the building experience.

Working with Conditionals

Students use conditionals to allow for more flexible apps. They also learn how parameters are used inside functions.

Final

Students prove their knowledge of all concepts learned throughout the course through a final exam.
