App Inventor 2 Tutorials Gameplay, Trailers and Related Videos

About the application:

Wish to give your students loads of activities to do with MIT's appinventor 2? Then here's the solution for you. Now first of all whilst these are screencasts, they are not the standard sort of activity that you would search on famous streaming websites out there. What happens is that there is a screencast that gives the students a task to work out and if they are unable to solve the trouble then there is a solution video to accompany the task set. This method your students have to think about how to solve the trouble, rather than simply following a "how to" style guide. So what's in the set of guides? Well there are 5 apk builds, the first 2 are easy tiny ones to receive your students familiar with the interface and present them how to create a "soundboard" and a variation of the magic 8 ball fortune teller. The another 3 apk builds have far more detail. The first is a painting kind apk (14 videos), where the students will take a picture and be able to annotate it using lines and circles that follow finger swipes. Of course there are also colours and a restart button. The second sees the introduction of a frog squashing mini game (12 videos) where frogs appear on the screen and you have to tap as a lot of as possible in a fixed time period. This introduces the concept of variables for time and scores. Our final apk build is for a easy mini golf mini game (16 videos), with random hole positioning and an object to avoid on the screen. In all 3 apks extension tasks are identified to enable your more able students to progress further if they want. All in all these videos will hold most students busy and engaged for a few hours, which of course saves you the time of having to plan if you are a teacher. If you wish a demo of what is on the apk head along to http://computing.training/index.php/shop where you will be able to see a couple of examples.
