and I made a few apps for the iPhone,

並為 iPhone, iPod Touch 和 iPad

iPod Touch, and iPad.

設計了一些 App 應用程式

I'd like to share a couple with you today.

今天要分享幾個例子

My first app was a unique fortune teller called Earth Fortune

我的第一個發明 是個算命 App，叫做"看天吃飯"

that would display different colors of earth

螢幕上，地球不同的顏色變化

depending on what your fortune was.

代表著不同的運勢

My favorite and most successful app is

而令我最得意的發明 叫做"小 假斯汀"

Bustin Jieber, which is — (Laughter) —

它是一款

which is a Justin Bieber Whac-A-Mole.

惡搞小賈斯汀的打地鼠遊戲

I created it because a lot of people at school

因為學校裡

disliked Justin Bieber a little bit,

很多同學都不喜歡小賈斯汀

so I decided to make the app.

所以我才決定要做這個 App

So I went to work programming it,

於是我開始寫程式

and I released it just before the holidays in 2010.

並趕在 2010 年暑假前發表

A lot of people ask me, how did I make these?

很多人都會問我 怎麼發明這些 App？

A lot of times it's because the person who asked

通常，會問這類問題的人

the question wants to make an app also.

多半也想嘗試看看

A lot of kids these days like to play games,

現代小孩子都很愛玩遊戲

but now they want to make them,

但他們更想自己做遊戲

and it's difficult,

只是很難

because not many kids know where to go

因為沒有管道

to find out how to make a program.

孩子們不知道去哪裡學寫程式

I mean, for soccer, you could go to a soccer team.

大家都知道 想學足球可以加入足球隊

For violin, you could get lessons for a violin.

想學小提琴可以參加小提琴班

But what if you want to make an app?

但如果是要學做 App 呢？

And their parents, the kid's parents might have done

父母小時候可能踢過足球 拉過小提琴

some of these things when they were young,

多少可以教孩子一點

but not many parents have written apps. (Laughter)

但有多少父母 小時候寫過 App 呢？（笑聲）

Where do you go to find out how to make an app?

那到底要上哪學做 App 呢？

Well, this is how I approached it. This is what I did.

接下來我要分享我的親身經驗

First of all, I've been programming in multiple

首先，我已經熟用多種程式語言

other programming languages to get the basics down,

奠定基本功

such as Python, C, Java, etc.

像是 Python、C、Java 等程式語

And then Apple released the iPhone,

不久，蘋果推出 iPhone

and with it, the iPhone software development kit,

iPhone 軟體開發工具也隨之問世

and the software development kit is a suite of tools

這是一款

for creating and programming an iPhone app.

專門製作 iPhone App 的工具

This opened up a whole new world of possibilities for me,

讓我可以天馬行空、激發無限可能

and after playing with the software development kit

一番摸索之後

a little bit, I made a couple apps, I made some test apps.

我做了一些 App，並做了測試

One of them happened to be Earth Fortune, and I was

其中一個叫 "看天吃飯"

ready to put Earth Fortune on the App Store,

因為我很想把它放上 App 商店

and so I persuaded my parents to pay the 99 dollar fee

我就說服了爸媽

to be able to put my apps on the App Store.

幫我繳 99 元的註冊費 （美金）

They agreed, and now I have apps on the App Store.

我的 App 就這樣上市了

I've gotten a lot of interest and encouragement

我的父母、朋友和老师

from my family, friends, teachers

給了我很多靈感和鼓勵

and even people at the Apple Store,

甚至連那些 Apple Store 用戶

and that's been a huge help to me.

都給我莫大的幫助

I've gotten a lot of inspiration from Steve Jobs,

Steve Jobs 也給了我很多靈感

and I've started an app club at school, and a teacher

我在學校成立了 App 研究社

at my school is kindly sponsoring my app club.

很有幸得到老師的大力贊助

Any student at my school can come and

只要是學校的學生

learn how to design an app.

都可以來學做 App

This is so I can share my experiences with others.

這就是我與他人分享經驗的方式

There's these programs called the iPad Pilot Program,

目前，美國的某些地區

and some districts have them.

正實行一個 以 iPad 代替實體課本的實驗計畫

I'm fortunate enough to be part of one.

我很有幸是其中一員

A big challenge is, how should the iPads be used,

期間所面臨的最大挑戰是

and what apps should we put on the iPads?

如何妥善利用 iPad 以及哪些 App 適合 iPad

So we're getting feedback from teachers at the school

所以，我們會徵詢老師的意見

to see what kind of apps they'd like.

看他們偏好哪些 App

When we design the app and we sell it,

設計好的 App 售出之後

it will be free to local districts and other districts

付費地區就可免費使用

that we sell to, all the money from that will go into

而其收入

the local ed foundations.

則捐給當地的教育機構

These days, students usually know a little bit more

這年頭，學生的科技新知

than teachers with the technology. (Laughter)

往往比老師發達一點（笑聲）

So -- (Laughter) --

如此看來（笑聲）

sorry -- (Laughter) --

不好意思（笑聲）

so this is a resource to teachers, and educators

所以，這就是老師的資源

should recognize this resource and make good use of it.

教育工作者應該意識到這點 並善加利用它

I'd like to finish up by saying what I'd like to do in the future.

最後，我想說說未來的計劃

First of all, I'd like to create more apps, more games.

第一，我想做更多 App 更多遊戲

I'm working with a third party company to make an app.

與第三方公司合作開發 App

I'd like to get into Android programming and development,

學寫 Android 系統的程式

and I'd like to continue my app club,

還有繼續經營我的 App 社團

and find other ways for students

繼續想辦法分享新知

to share knowledge with others. Thank you. (Applause)

讓校園知識更普及 謝謝 （掌聲）
