last class. :(

   Today is the last day of the android programing class. It was very fun and I liked it. I hope we do it again. :)

Today we watched several videos on making apps for Android. One had a cat on a keyboard. The apps that we had made so far were the Hello, Android app and the Hello, Linear Layout app. Justin made that last one alone, and he says it was a failure. Marco got a QR code for Harford Day School, so now if you scan it you go to the HDS website. Our group tried to make a couple new apps today, but they all ended in failure. The tutorials were extremely difficult and confusing. But overall, this class was a lot of fun.

QR code for HDS android Class

Today I made a QR code for the HDS web page. On qr code maker .com. I had to pick the size of the code. I picked the large font. I had to link it to www.harfordday.org. It was fun.

Some Progress

Today I still couldn't get some of the apps to work, but then I tried a different website to get instructions from. It's called AppInventor and is a lot more user-friendly than the previous website. I just started working from it and I'm pretty sure I'll be able to make some apps with it.

App Inventor

We looked at App Inventor today. It is an extremely easy way to develop android apps. I like it because in the video it looks very simple to use and requires minimal programming knowledge. It looks like a lot of fun!!! In the video the person developed an app with ease. It looks very cool. Can't wait to use it.

Final Class

Today we tried a lot of things but they did not work. All the tutorials
were hard and we could not understand them. Last time we made a linear
layout app. It displayed colors. Somebody else created a qr code that
when you use a scanner it takes you to harfordday.org. I hope we can create another worker app some other time.

Try and Fail

Today was the biggest failure in the android class for our group. Many of the new tutorials we tried were confusing and challenging. It was too frustrating. I hope we can get better at programming so that we could possibly develop a real app for Harford Day School. Let's hope it works.
