Students in Action - AppInventor Presentations

Below are the links for some of the first official presentations that the students gave in our cluster.  Students created their own mobile apps for Android devices using AppInventor.

Cameron and Marco - Ballin

Brian N. and Rachel - Battleship

Sravya and Mauricio - Escape from the Dorm Room

Sonika and Sam - Beware the Square

Due to technical issues, three presentation (Po and Brian C., Eric and Andres, and Andrew and Brandon) videos are currently not available.  If the issue gets resolved, they'll be posted.

Be sure to check out everyone's presentations slides and get a closer look at the demos online.

What a first week!

It's been a very busy end of the first week.  Everyone finished their AppInventor apps and learned some lessons along the way.  Lessons that weren't necessarily how to program in AppInventor either!   They were more along the lines of saving often, backing up just as often and recording what works as we go.

The presentations of all the groups can be found online at AppInventor Presentations.  Videos of the presentations will be posted this weekend.

The "Faculty's Choice" for best app and presentation went to Brian N. and Rachel for their Battleship game.  The "People's Choice" (voted on by the students) went to Sam and Sonika.  Both teams won UCSD t-shirts for their excellent work.

The academic day ended with an introduction to the Scribbler Robot.  Everyone was excited to meet their new little red robotic friend!

The evening ended with COSMOlympics - a multi-event competition among all the clusters.  It's always a lot of fun and Cluster 1 did an amazing job.  The video of the skit and cheer will be posted weekend as well.  Like I said, it's been a busy Friday!
