Learn Basic Programming Skills....

Coding Fun

Starting next Tuesday, (November 7th) I'm going to be teaching a programming class.  This class is going to be about using programming skills to make applications using MIT's Application Inventor 2. (See http://appinventor.mit.edu.)

The interesting thing about this developmental environment is it's all contained in the cloud and can produce some very complex Android applications.  To get a feel for App Inventor 2, see the video below:




This class will starts with the basics of the environment and then go on to make some nifty stuff!  If you're interested, take a look!

Why? You might ask.  First off, by today's standards, VGA is a "low resolution" standard.  The projector connection also required a USB to the audio systems of the device presenting so not one but TWO cables were required to the device.  One of a laptops or tablets strength is "portability", but when tethered to a projector, it looked more like astronaut to a space station; very limited "portability".   (Along with the cords looking like a lifeline!) Enter HDMI .... "HDMI  ( High-Definition Multimedia Interface ) is a  proprietary  audio/video  interface  for transmitting  uncompressed video  data and compressed or uncompressed  digital a...
