Activity Directions
Description:
300 Level - You really know your stuff
Log in to App Inventor, go to "My Projects" and click the New button. Give your app a name and you're ready to get started! Use what you've learned about App Inventor and your own prototype design to build your mobile app. Be sure to SAVE your work often, and test your design as you go, making changes until you have a DRAFT that is ready for feedback. Write up a report about your draft including a link to the zip file of your mobile app design (see instructions below), and wait for feedback.
To complete this activity: Submit a draft of your mobile app and a written report of where you are in the draft, what decisions still need to be made, what you want to improve, and any other information that seems important for the reviewers to know.
