Teaching a course on App Inventor? This site provides a framework for doing so. David Wolber from the University of San Francisco has taught introductory CS for non-majors (CS0), but the materials could be adapted for a CS1 course for majors as well, or for a high school course. You can also pick and choose from the seven available modules, or just give a two or three week intro to App Inventor with the introductory modules.

I didn't enjoy school very much. Occasionally, I had a teacher who would inspire me. But as an adult, as I began working with computer technology to tell stories through film, I began to wonder, "Why couldn't we use these new technologies to help improve the learning process?" Twenty years ago when we started The George Lucas Educational Foundation, we could see that digital technology was going to completely revolutionize the educational system, whether it liked it or not. Yet, in light of extraordinary advancements in how we use technology to communicate and learn, our schools and districts have been frustratingly slow to adapt. Unfortunately, much of our system of education is locked in a time capsule that dates back to the Industrial Revolution, when learning became an exercise in pumping as much information into kids as possible.

Anche se hai concluso la scuola anni fa non significa che il tempo per imparare sia finito. Anche se vivi in un villaggio sperduto non vuol dire che lo studio debba essere inaccessibile… …Chiunque tu sia, imparare è la cosa migliore per crescere.
