  • MIT App Inventor

    This is the web based program that we use in App Creators.  If working on a desktop, there is an emulator that can be downloaded so that students can test their app as they design.  Otherwise, students can use an Android device (Phone, Tablet) to test their device.  MIT is working on making the program work across iOS and Android Platforms

  • Makecode by Microbit

    This is the web based program that we use in our Innovators and Makers class.  Because it has an included emulator, students can test their programs without having the physical device in front of them.
