This session is geared towards giving you the basic information needed to get you started on exploring Android SDK for the purposes of education and entertainment. This session will walk you through the basics of 2D tweening animation and frame animation using the Android SDK. The session will then take you through the basics of OpenGL by explaining the Camera, Viewing Volume, and myriad other basic details you will need before being able to program in OpenGL. The session then will walk you through a key set of OpenGL samples that come with the Android SDK. In the end we will cover briefly approaches and resources for game design using Android SDK.
The hope is that Android can be a great platform for educational games for children similar to the NASA kids program.
