It takes some preparation to set up your classroom for App Inventor. This page explains what you need to do in advance and what you should let the IT people know to set up at your school.
Based on the Coolthink@JC curriculum, these 10 units comprise approximately 50 hours of content. Students learn to think computationally, while making mobile apps with MIT App Inventor. Developed by MIT App Inventor staff, this curriculum is targeted toward middle school grades and up.
This high school curriculum is a College Board-endorsed AP Computer Science Principles curriculum and professional development based on the theme of mobile computing. The course engages students, is project-based, and encourages collaboration and creativity.
We encourage everyone to join and participate in discussions on our community site. Go to Groups, and request to be added to the " Teach App Inventor" group. Educators can also share ideas, lesson plans, activities, etc through the community platform.
This page includes various tutorials of all levels useful in a classroom.
In partnership with YR Media, we've built 9 App Building Guides that are based on articles written by young people on topics that are meaningful to them. They can be used as single tutorials or bundled into a computational action curriculum.
MIT is building AI tools into App Inventor that will enable even beginning students to create original AI applications that would have been advanced research a decade ago.
This site includes information and tutorials for various connected devices that can interact with apps created with App Inventor.
Here you'll find links to other curricula and resources developed by educators from around the world.
