Learning to develop apps can help students solve problems, work together in creative ways, and bring their ideas to life. At this two-day professional learning workshop from Apple, you’ll learn how to introduce your students to coding using the free App Development with Swift curriculum.
During this workshop, you will:
- Learn why Swift—a powerful programming language—is great for both professional developers and students who are just learning to code.
- Explore the App Development with Swift curriculum that introduces students to the world of app development and the basics of Swift andXcode.
- Get hands-on experience using Mac andXcodeproject files included in the curriculum.
REGISTRATION DEADLINE: July 25, 2019

This course supports the following Massachusetts Digital Literacy and Computer Science standards:
9-12.CT.d.1 Use a development process in creating a computational artifact that leads to a minimum viable product and includes reflection, analysis, and iteration (e.g., a data-set analysis program for a science and engineering fair, capstone project that includes a program, term research project based on program data).
9-12.CT.d.7 Use a programming language or tool feature correctly to enforce operator precedence.
9-12.CT.d.8 Use global and local scope appropriately in program design (e.g., for variables).
9-12.CT.d.10 Use an iterative design process, including learning from making mistakes, to gain a better understanding of the problem domain.
9-12.CT.d.11 Engage in systematic testing and debugging methods to ensure program correctness.
9-12.CT.d.12 Demonstrate how to document a program so that others can understand its design and implementation.
