This introductory course on Android Development is targeted for software developers to help them become proficient Android app developers. The course begins with a brief introduction to Android and its architecture, then goes on to explore the Android Software Development Kit (SDK) and the role Java plays in Android development.

The course then takes a hands-on approach to help learners build simple Android apps using UI elements, and rendering them using different layouts and themes. With the foundation laid, the course next touches upon the topic of storing and retrieving data, accessing data from content providers, and using a database.

The hands-on then helps learners to use varied services of the Android OS including Asynchronous task execution, remote location and Google Maps, accessing remote services, and using WebView. The course concludes with application development best practices and an emphasis on QA, testing, and debugging.
