This 4 week MOOC builds upon the overview of Java and Android covered in Course 1 by delving deeper into core Android app components, such as intents, activities, and broadcast receivers. You will learn by example how to program these core Android components together with Android concurrency frameworks and basic Java file I/O classes (such as File and InputStream) and Android storage mechanisms (such as Shared Preferences). You'll also learn how to use the Git source code management system. Throughout this MOOC you'll work incrementally on a project involving downloading, storing, and display images from remote websites. Each week you will add additional capabilities to the project, based on material covered in the lecture videos. You'll spend roughly 4 hours per week watching video lectures, taking quizzes, and programming assignments with Java and Android.

Programa - Qué aprenderás en este curso
MOOC Overview
This module provides an introduction to the contents of the MOOC and summarizes effective learning strategies
Introduction to Git
This module provides an overview of the Git version control system.
Android Intents
This module describes the structure, functionality, and use of Android intents that provide an abstract description of an operation to perform or an event that has occurred.. Android uses intents as the "glue" that simplifies the integration of apps that reuse existing components, such as activities, services, and broadcast receivers.
Android Activities
This module describes the structure, functionality, and use of Android activities, which define user-facing operations that are displayed on a device screen. Activities are the most common type of Android component and are at the heart of app Android apps.
Android Broadcast Receivers

I did get insight into how deep the concepts are. I definitely need to and will work and study more on the topics taught in this course which I believe will help me more. Great course!
This course wasn't as interactive as the last one. I feel like making us make a small app from scratch and using that to explain each component would've made it easier to understand.
It is a very good course and it is explained in a good way but the course concentrates on the theoretical part more than the practical part but overall it is a very good course.
The content seem rushed sometimes, but if you take time to work on the optional programming assignment you will understand completely the concepts presented in every week.
