Android+App+Creation+(Trevor+Jewkes)

Looking through the list of current ILM's, I saw the Android Intro ILM and was interested. Upon clicking on the link I found nothing. Here are my ideas of what can be put into this ILM:

Intro: There should be a short introduction explaining the history of Android and a disclaimer saying that they will need to be able to use [|MIT's App Inventor] The next couple of activities should be a easy to follow tutorial of how to optimize the users ability in creating their apps. This could be accomplished in one activity or in many by separating the different specific components into different activities and expounding on them a little more.

A Set-Up activity could be included that could set up a basic to advanced app that the user would have to create. It would include some specifications to be included in the app to help the user see if they are able to create different apps. There could be a slide for a beginner, intermediate and advanced app that the user could create.

A good beginning would be the one found on the lhs android wiki. I think that set up would be a great way to do it. Including more difficulties would be beneficial for those who would like to be able to do more with the app inventor.

Mr. Weeks: maybe for now we can have the android app students contribute to that wiki and we can see what info new students need to become functional.
