Google Maps, WhatsApp, Instagram have become our everyday essential apps and your child may be the creator of the next B I G thing that you will use in your life. The MIT App Inventor Platform allows students to create fully functional mobile apps.
Get started on MIT App Inventor
The MIT App Inventor platform is a visual programming language that will kickstart your kid’s interest in mobile app development.
Create Your Very Own Mobile App
With the right tools in hand and the right training, your kid is now ready to create an app that he is proud to show off to you.
Learn User Experience/ User Interface Design
Think from the user’s perspective and how they will act and react to different parts of the mobile interface and feedback to you about it.
Create the next B I G Thing

Google Maps, WhatsApp, Instagram have become our everyday essential apps and your child may be the creator of the next B I G thing that you will use in your life. We nurture future leaders in technology by allowing students to explore the path of mobile app development. The MIT App Inventor Platform allows students to create fully functional mobile apps.

With an intuitive, visual drag-and-drop programming, our App Inventor curriculum guides students to apply computational thinking and creativity to design their own apps and put them to test immediately on their phones. They can build simple fun apps such as Countdown Timer, Racing Game, Robot Shooter Game and more!
-
Hear about it firsthand from our students who got to present their apps and placed 2nd at the MIT App Inventor Summit (USA).

App Inventor 1’s goal is to introduce mobile app programming, instill confidence and an adventurous spirit for students to continue exploring to become little app creators. This course is suitable for students aged 10-12 in the current year. Want to find out more? Meet our students or check out our FAQs.

Utilising the accelerometer (a tiny electronic chip integrated on almost all modern mobile phones to measure acceleration), Rylan programmed a game that is played by tilting the mobile device to control a car to “attack” pollution. This game is inspired by the United Nations Sustainable Goals.
Inspired by Pokemon Go, Isabel created Appemon, which is a simplified version of the 2016 blockbuster game!
Taking actions for the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals, Hannah created a mobile game “Water Catcher” to promote the message of avoiding wasting water, to contribute to Goal 6 on Clean Water and Sanitation
