👋🏻 Hi! I'm
Joel. My pronouns are he/him. I'm 44 and I live in London near Epping Forest with my fiancée Jess and cat Dave.
Welcome to the Creative Computing Institute!
Welcome to the Diploma in Apple Development 🍎👩🏻💻!
By the end of this lecture, we'll have learnt about:
- The lecturers on the Apple Diploma
- Who all of you are
- What people have made on this course before
- What you will make in the next year
- The key milestones of the year
- Some homework to complete before the first lecture, next Tuesday
There are two lecturers on the Apple Diploma, me and
Xiaowan-Yi. She'll be teaching you all about Machine Learning. Let's go through
my website and
Xiaowan's.
Let's go around the room and introduce ourselves. Please say how you'd like to be addressed, what course you are coming from and what you are interested in making this year.
What are you going to make this year? You are going to learn how to make apps for the Apple Vision Pro. How many of you have tried it? Have any of you ever done any programming? If so, in which language? Don't worry if you haven't, many people in previous cohorts started with no experience at all. Does anyone know the name of the coding language we will be learning this year?
The key milestones of the year are the end of Block One and the end of Block Two. That's when we'll have assessment. The first half of the year will be all about making an app prototype in a group and the second half of the year will be all about making an app for release on your own. We'll have an end of year show with the rest of CCI and (hopefully) a presentation at the Apple UK headquarters at Battersea!
What questions do you have for me?
