I don't think there are any specific prerequisites but a good overview of Java Basics will really help if the concepts are all new to you.
I'd start with the Java track and then move on to Android. And if you get stuck, make sure to ask on these pages - there's lots of assistance available.
Good luck!
Steve.

It could be used more generally but there may be better 'basics' courses depending where the student wants to progress to. Android is written within the Java language so having an understanding of how Java works at a basic level is helpful so that you are familiar with its data types, for example.
