Coding (also called programming or developing) is telling a computer, app, phone or website what you want it to do. MIT App Inventor is an innovative beginner’s introduction to programming and app creation that transforms the complex language of text-based coding into visual, drag-and-drop building blocks. The simple graphical interface grants even an inexperienced novice ability to create a basic, fully functional app within an hour or less.Teaching students to embrace computational thinkingPrimary Objectives: Promoting computer science education – Learning to code prepares kids for the world we live in today. There are tons of jobs and occupations that use the code directly, like web designers, software developers, and robotics engineers, and even more where knowing how to code is a huge asset—jobs in manufacturing, nanotechnology or information sciences. Learning To Code Develops Problem Solving And Computational Thinking Skills – The skills that come with computer programming help kids develop new ways of thinking and foster problem-solving techniques that can have big repercussions in other areas.Coding Is Fun! -Beyond the practical reasons for learning how to code, there’s the fact that creating a game or animation can be really fun for kids.Learning Outcomes• Academic Relevance• Cognitive Development• Collaboration Skills• Creative Development• Critical Thinking• Engagement and Usability• Life Skills• Organizational and Productivity Skills
