Come Join us for our April workshop titled AppVenture in Python on Saturday, April 2oth and April 27th, 2024, for girls ages 8 – 12 & 13-17.
The Appventure workshop is a hands-on journey designed to introduce students to app development using Python, tailored specifically for Black Kids Code (Girls) students. Throughout three progressive levels, students will learn to build a functional application, starting from basic login functionality to displaying items in a list, and finally advancing to wireframing and app completion. Each level will incorporate increasingly sophisticated wireframes to guide the development process.
Objective
The objective of the Appventure workshop is to provide students with the essential skills for developing web applications using Python. Through a series of progressive levels, students will learn to create functional apps, starting from basic login features and advancing to displaying items in a list. They will also gain experience in wireframing, problem-solving, and collaboration using tools like GitHub Codespaces and Figma. By the end of the workshop, participants will be empowered to design and implement their own web applications and be prepared for further exploration in software development.
Materials Required
• Computing Devices: Each participant will need a computer or laptop that can run Python and access internet-based resources.
• Learning Resources: All necessary educational materials will be digitally accessible through the Moodle platform.
• GitHub Codespaces: IDE environment provided by GitHub for collaborative coding, enabling seamless development and version control.
• Figma: Wireframing tool used to design the layout and user interface of the application, facilitating the creation of increasingly advanced wireframes for each level.
