The document summarizes an online workshop that taught educators how to design mobile apps using App Inventor. The workshop was hosted on a learning management system and consisted of 3 modules: 1) introducing mobile app concepts, 2) building practice apps using basic components, and 3) designing original apps. Participants built sample apps, provided feedback, and discussed integrating mobile learning and apps into their teaching. The workshop aimed to show educators how to design their own mobile apps for educational purposes.

Empowering educators with Googles Android App Inventor: An online workshop in mobile app design Yu-Chang Hsu, Kerry Rice and Lisa Dawley Charatsee Sombattip TESOL 5 No.54120103135
Introduction Mobile devices, such as smartphones, are vastly gaining popularity because of their relatively strong computing capability built into small sizes, their Internet connectivity the availability of various types easy-to-use mobile software applications
Android OS has now caught up and led the mobile OS market within the US with 38.1% share . has the advantage of being open-source, customizable and allows formultitasking. there were 250 000 Android apps on the Android Market, with a total of 4.5 billion downloads.
What is App Inventor? a web-based tool consisted of two major elements Component Designer, one can design the apps interface and integrate the nonvisible components (eg, Global Positioning System (GPS) or sound) Block Editor, one can program apps behaviors and tell how an app reacts under certain circumstances.
App design workshop and online learning environments mobile app design workshop was offered through Boise State Universitys Professional Development (PD) Portal, hosted on the Moodle learning management system.

Challenges and implications participants would be engaged in development earlier in the process participants can build more practice apps and gain more block programmingskills to be applied in their final app design the shorter turn-around on the Twitter activity for discussing mobile learning and mobile computing could lead to more focused and active participation
Conclusion this workshop served the purpose of introducing visual programming of mobile apps to interested educators and individuals helped participants realize the potential of mobile computing and mobile apps in their teaching, learning and work settings helped participants realize they can do it leverage the power of mobile computing and design their own apps to serve their needs.
