Looking for some advice...get all the cute tinder jokes out of the way.

it can be something database driven, can use the accelerometer or GPS/location service..for instance maybe a virtual building where you could tap on each room to see who the teacher is and what class they teach...or even an on screen gps arrow to lead you to your class. his building is huge..2 stories and often tricky..especially for freshmen..to find their next class before the bell.

i dunno.

i'm trying to think creatively..something that might actually be useful and that he can learn alot from creating.

all ideas welcome. nothing to do know except sit while the entire first page of this thread is consumed with smart arse replies.

Maybe he could make an app like the one on that tv show.

Nip Alert. It can alert you to any hard nipples in your area.

Not sure how it would relate to school, but I bet y'all could find a way to make it relate.

I'm just trying to think creatively. I'm sure the rest of the first page will be filled with smart arse replies.


ETA: See the picture directly below. Something like that.

gps speedometer that records avg speed during segments of your trip.

useful for disputing speeding tickets.

this idea came to me in the shower yesterday, but the app store is flooded with gps speedometers.

Set up a game of Tag with the phone using NFC. This is potentially dangerous (to the phones) and stupid, which means it's perfect for high school students.

My kids' high school have a website where I can log in and see their grades at all times. Of course, it's only as accurate as how often the teachers update the grades.

What about on the app if it showed the student his grades at all times? This would have to assume that you have something like ours and the grades are always available.

Does it have to be an android app?

And is it an app for the school or is it a project and the app can be anything?

Eta:just saw it his for his school. Nevermind.

Make an app that rates public restrooms

Eta: Just saw it was only for his school. Make an app that rates teachers. How hard the class is, quality of teacher, etc. Basically ratemyprofessors for his school
