Android Development: A meta-learning approach
- 1. Android Development from theory to practise
- 2. ACADEMIA PhD Candidate / APOSTOLOS Coordinator Research Associate, Informatics Dept. KRITIKOS OTHER LOCAL Mentor, Co-Founder SOCIAL NETWORKS Software Eng. / Development Process
- 5. THE PROBLEM W/ INFORMATICS • Things are moving to fast • We can’t afford investing in a specific technology / standard • There is a plentitude of options …and as from 1980s THERE IS FREE/LIBRE OPEN SOURCE SOFTWARE
- 6. TODAY, A GOOD PROGRAMMER IS… • An expert to a single programming language • An expert to a couple of programming languages • An expert to desktop development • An expert to web development • An expert to mobile development • An expert in ruby :)

- 8. A GOOD PROGRAMMER IS AGILE & A FAST LEARNER
- 10. _____ Development learning to learn new stuff
- 11. ANDROID our case study for today :)
- 12. PREREQUISITES • Internet connection • Time • An idea for a toy example (in order to apply what we learn)
- 13. TECH PREREQUISITES • Toolset (e.g. SDKs, IDEs, Emulators, etc…) • Documentation (API, Tutorials / Video Tutorials, Books) • Examples / Reusable material (Demo Apps, F/LOSS Source Code, etc…)
- 14. UP, UP AND AWAY!
