Description
Class Experience
Your student will learn how to code with Python, one of the world's most popular coding languages. There is no experience necessary for this class, and it will be fun for everyone! Some projects we will complete include rock, paper, scissors, a mad libs game, login system, spiral animation, guess the number, and a space catcher game. This is an Outschool flexible schedule class, so all lessons are pre-recorded videos that can be completed at a time convenient for them. Students can ask...
This class is taught in English.
Students will be introduced to Python and learn about the basic syntax(structure) of the language. The goal of the class is for students to be interested in continuing to learn about coding and technology!
I’ve been a professional developer for nearly a decade. In the past I've worked for Dell, Apple, Best Buy, and the Government of New Zealand. Over the last 5 years, I’ve been teaching and mentoring aspiring junior developers.
Students are encouraged to complete review questions and coding challenges to practice what they have learned. These challenges will take approximately 1 to 2 hours per week.
Students will use Code with Mu, a free code editor designed specifically for beginners. Code with Mu requires any Windows, Apple Mac, or Linux computer. Unfortunately, there isn't a version of Code with Mu for Tablets or Chromebooks. Please contact me if you have any questions. ****Students will need to be very comfortable typing and know how to copy/paste on their device.*********
In addition to the Outschool classroom, this class uses:
No live meetings, and an estimated 1 - 2 hours per week outside of class.
Students will use Code with Mu, a free code editor designed specifically for beginners. Code with Mu requires any Windows, Apple Mac, or Linux computer. We will also utilize the official Python documentation (instructions) from Python.org as a reference throughout the class. Also, we utilize Pygame Zero for our final game project! *********Students will need to be very comfortable typing and with copy/ paste on their computers. ***********
