Mobile App & Game Development - Levels I (Period 8)

Course Description

Technology has a language and it’s called “code”. At Amundsen, we believe coding is an essential skill. So, we designed this pioneering course to teach Juniors and Seniors the Swift coding language on Mac laptops. Through these computers, students create create fun and useful Apps that are then synced (transferred) to iPhones, iPads, and iPod-Touch devices to be used.

This is a dual-credit, two-year course that students remain in for both their Junior and Senior years. In Level 1, Juniors develop the programming, user interface design, and problem solving skills needed to begin creating real Apps & Games. At the end of this first year, their work is showcased at a citywide App competition.
