DLT:
- Use code blocks to add, delete, and check items in a list
- Create an "Item Collector" game
- Apply coding concepts to create projects, games, and solve a puzzle module
- Explain the purpose of individual UI elements when developing an app
Activities:
- Tynker 302: Lists - In this lesson, students will learn how to add, delete, and check items in a list. Additionally, students will create projects, games, and solve a puzzle module while reinforcing three different list operations: Add , Contains , and Delete .
- Code.org Lesson 11: Exploring UI Elements - This lesson helps narrow the scope of the types of design elements students can include in their apps since up until now, students have explored and brainstormed apps with a variety of functionality - they may have discovered apps that use maps, or connect to social media, or access data on your phone. However, students will eventually be prototyping these apps in App Lab, so they will be in better shape if their ideas align with the kinds of apps that can be made using AppLab’s tools. Today focuses on having teams look at several example apps made in AppLab and identifying the components of the user interface. They then make a plan for which features could use which components in their app.
