Introduction to Programming with Python, Part 2
Class experience
Summary: A college-prep introductory course in computer programming, part 2. Description: This is the second in the series of Introduction to Programming with Python courses. It will pick up right where the first class left off. Course Objective This course is a continuation of the problem-solving and programming methodologies that are fundamental to the study of computer science. Students gain considerable experience with fundamental language constructs and types (classes), such as...
Course Content This course will cover the following topics: • Loops • Methods • Single and Multi-Dimensional Arrays
I have a degree in computer science and have been teaching all levels of programming and software engineering at the college level for 20 years and have worked in the industry for the same amount of time. This particular course (Introduction to Programming) has always been my favorite to teach. My goal is to give the students an experience that will prepare them to be successful in a Computer Science based college program. I love programming because there are multiple ways to solve a problem. Computers only do what you tell them to do - whether you realize you're telling them to do something or not!
Homework Offered
Weekly programming assignments will be posted at the end of each class. Students will be encouraged to work on the assignment and post it before the next class. The instructor will be available throughout the week to help along the way!2 - 4 hours per week outside of class
Assessments Offered
This is a very hands-on course. Students will be asked to try out the Python programming principles AS they are being taught in the class. After each class a lab project will be assigned that guides the student through creating complete and proper running programs that will be submitted to the instructor before the next class. The instructor will be available to guide the student through these labs throughout the week.Grades Offered
Students will be provided with weekly PowerPoint decks that will contain all the information they need.
In addition to the Outschool classroom, this class uses:
I love to teach! I love the look on a student's face when they "get it" or when they realize how much they love (or are allowed to enjoy) what they are learning! I have been teaching Mathematics, Computer Science (programming) and Theatre...
