By doing this way you don't have to write all the switch case for activity.

public class MainActivity extends Activity {
  ListView list;
  String[] web = {
          "Notifications",
          "School",
          "What's Hot",
          "Tell a friend",
          "Hit us up",
          "Settings",
          "About & Help"
  };
  String[] s1 = {
          "Notifications",
          "School",
          "Whats_hot",
          "Tellafriend",
          "Hitusup",
          "Settings",
          "AboutHelp"
  };


  @Override
  protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
    setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
    CustomList adapter = new
    CustomList(MainActivity.this, web, imageId);
    list=(ListView)findViewById(R.id.list);
    list.setAdapter(adapter);
    list.setOnItemClickListener(new AdapterView.OnItemClickListener() {
            @Override
            public void onItemClick(AdapterView parent, View view,
                                    int position, long id) {
                String a=s1[position];
                Class a1= null;
                try {
                     a1 =    Class.forName("."+a);
                } catch (ClassNotFoundException e) {
                     e.printStackTrace();
                }
                startActivity(new Intent(MainActivity.this,a1));

            }
        @SuppressWarnings("unused")
        public void onClick(View v){ 
        };
     });
  }

}

Don't forget to put point '.' immediately after your package name.
