What's that building? The use of App Inventor to create an interactive mobile application campus tour

Mobile applications can be created by many different methods but is nearly impossible without extensive knowledge of a programming language such as Java or Objective-C. New visual programming environments have been created to break down those programming barriers. This project looks at the way applications can be built by a novice or non-programmer and evaluates App Inventor, a visual programming environment designed to create Android applications without knowing Java. This paper describes all phases of the project, from the selection process for choosing a program, to the testing and evaluation of the final mobile application.Master of Science in Information Scienc
