Over the past year and a half, the 麻豆天美果冻传媒 App Inventor team has collaborated on multiple workshops with 麻豆天美果冻传媒 Sloan Senior Lecturer Paul McDonagh-Smith attended by C-suite executives, vice presidents, and MBAs. These events have provided a wonderful opportunity for the 麻豆天美果冻传媒 App Inventor team to collaborate with the 麻豆天美果冻传媒 Sloan School of Management to highlight how generative AI can not only provide impact on the business environment but in ways that are easy to grasp and can have a real effect in the corporate world.
App Inventor鈥檚 effects on the corporate sphere are not just constrained to the 麻豆天美果冻传媒 Sloan School of Management, however. Marjorie Yang, a proponent of App Inventor in Hong Kong and former Chairwoman of the Esquel Group, advocated for App Inventor in her business. Employees of Esquel developed an array of applications with 麻豆天美果冻传媒 App Inventor under her leadership (learn more).
Our 麻豆天美果冻传媒 Sloan events typically begin with an introduction to 麻豆天美果冻传媒 App Inventor, including its history and how we work to reduce the barrier to entry for technology with the aim to make individuals into producers of technology, not just consumers.

We then transition into a live tutorial, where participants are encouraged to install the 麻豆天美果冻传媒 App Inventor Companion app on their Android or iOS device. To streamline, we leverage the use of our anonymous account feature on the server at code.appinventor.mit.edu. This lets attendees get started immediately on their projects.
During the workshops, participants have explored the use of chat-based AI, generative tools for making and editing images, and also explore the plethora of App Inventor鈥檚 components.
With these workshops, we hope to convey that anyone at any level of the org chart can both learn about computational thinking and, more importantly, discover how they can apply this technique to other parts of the business enterprise, even if a computer isn鈥檛 directly involved. Importantly, it shows that block-based coding environments are not just a platform for children but that people of all ages can build real world applications with tools like 麻豆天美果冻传媒 App Inventor.
Lastly, I鈥檇 like to extend my thanks to the 麻豆天美果冻传媒 App Inventor staff and students who volunteer their time to make these sessions successful for audiences of 60+ participants.
