Has your child ever wanted to make an iPhone App? In this entry level course, your child will learn how to design and build native apps for Apple’s ecosystem: iPhone, iPad and macOS! 

NO CODING EXPERIENCE IS REQUIRED FOR THIS CLASS. Students are encouraged to explore, break things, problem solve and be as creative as possible. 

This very accessible class is a great entry point into the world of app development and coding for your kids.

The goal of this class is to empower beginner students to design, develop, code and create their very own apps for Apple’s ecosystem of platforms. Interactivity is the key to authentic learning and my teaching style reflects this. In this class I will teaching through guided real-time instruction, occasional tutorial videos and examples while always striving to meet the differentiated learning needs of my students. By the end of this entry level class, students will have a basic app running on their Apple devices. 

REQUIREMENT
Due to the closed nature of Apple's ecosystem, the only way to develop native apps for Apple's platforms is on a Mac (preferably Mojave or higher), using the Xcode Software Development Kit (available for free on the Mac app store).
