A college-prep introductory course in computer programming. Part 3 of a 3 course sequence! Builds on all the skills from Parts 1 and 2.
Class experience
Summary: A college-prep introductory course in computer programming, part 3. Description: This is the third in the series of Introduction to Programming with Python courses. It will pick up right where the second 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...

Week 1Lesson 1Functions with parameters, variable scopeTaking a deeper look at Functions (we started that back in Part 2), we find out how to pass different types of parameters into our user-defined functions.Week 2Lesson 2Reading from external filesExternal files (text files, data files) are a great way to store data and share it between programs or sessions. Today we start using external files by reading data in from them.Week 3Lesson 3Writing to external files, pickling, shelvingOnce your program has modified existing data (that it read in) or generated new data, we need to be able to write it out to a file. Today we see how straightforward that is to do in Python.Week 4Lesson 4ExceptionsIf the user does something wrong, your program could crash. We want to prevent that. Catch the user's error, fix it, and move on. This is Exception Handling.Week 5Lesson 5Object Oriented ProgrammingMany programming languages focus on the idea of Object Oriented Programming (OOP), where the focus is creating 'objects' that can solve problems, or be used in solving problems. We start looking at how Python handles creating these objects.Week 6Lesson 6OOP Part 2 - Inheritance, PolymorphismMore about Object Oriented Programming. Specifically setting objects to have constructors and destructors (for setup and cleanup) and how to start giving objects functionality - the ability to do things.Week 7Lesson 7Graphics with PythonPython has the ability to draw objects (lines, shapes, fills) to the screen, as well as create windows, buttons, and forms!
This class is taught in English.
Course Content This course will cover the following topics: • Single and Multi-Dimensional Arrays • Searching algorithms • Sorting algorithms
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:
