Apple iOS App Development: Coding with Swift Playgrounds
Workshop Description
The Centre for Learning, Teaching and Technology is offering the following 2.5-hour certificated workshops on Apple iOS App Development: Coding with Swift Playgrounds.
In the workshop, students can learn how to code with basic Apple Swift codes in the Swift Playgrounds app on iPad and user interface design with the SwiftUI framework. Students can make up executable lines of Swift codes to solve problems, apply logic and solve puzzles. Students can learn computational skills, such as variables, functions, loops and arrays. By the end of the workshop, students can apply the coding practice to create interactive games and apps for any teaching topics in creative ways. Students can get to know the Apple Teacher program, a free professional learning programme certified by Apple that equips educators with Apple technology skills and helps educators design more engaging lessons.
