16. PRIMARY SESSIONS The App Challenge! In groups you will choose three cards – two with categories on e.g. sport, cookery, and one with something to use on the device, e.g. camera, GPS (map), internet. In your groups think about an app you could create that involves at least two of those ideas and write down a sentence to explain simply what it will do, e.g. The app tells you where you can buy sports clothing nearby. Who would use your app?

17. PRIMARY SESSIONS User Experience – e.g. Map App I select the Maps app on the screen I type where I want to go and press SEARCH I can pinch to zoom in and out, or drag to move the map
