This workshop is the second workshop about Android programming in the country side. I wanted to get another experience with App Inventor and with my French Server AI-Carthage. After an explanation of the concept, I gave them a list of video tutorial that I made. Some of them were really quick finishing the app and moving to the next one. I was expected that they don’t have Android phone, but most of them bring one or borrowed for the occasion.
The participants were middle school and high school students. I was surprised that there were no girls in the group. I asked about that and the director of the youth house told me that there is a real problem of working with girls in the country side. Mixed workshop are not socially accepted. And workshop for girls are animated by a women mentor.
I am Adel Kassah, a computer science teacher in middle school from Tunisia. Now, I am working in the UAE (ABU DHABI) I try to promote coding culture in my country and around the world. I run after school club about programming to kids. I teach them how to make their own games, their own Android App. They learn how to program embedded system and Robotics. I also cooperate with association around Tunisia and share my expertise. I develop my own tool or improve existing one. I made several presentation in conferences about Technology and coding. Lately I was interested about the world of Internet of Things. I made a tool TUNIOT that makes easy programming the NODEMCU board.
