ADE Festival Of Learning 2021 Playground - Code Session On App Design

 I am honored to be part of the Apple Distinguished Educator Creativity Playground during the upcoming ADE Festival of Learning next week.



I will be collaborating with other ADEs from around the world to show how to design a Hotel Home app prototype by using the Keynote app on an iPad to create a working model of a travel app.


Register here to join this free event.



App prototyping is the process of creating a working model of an app. Before spending a lot of time writing the code for an app, you can create a prototype to help you map out the interactivity and features of the app. Essentially creating models of each screen, the features of the app, and demonstrating what happens when you push a button. 

Session Description
Bring your app ideas to life using Keynote in an activity designed for aspiring app creators. In this session, you’ll sketch an app interface and incorporate screenshots, draw shapes and link elements to show how your app functions.
