Have you tried out Python and now you are looking for ways to practice and master your skills? In this one-time class, we will use the basic skills learned in Python to develop a simple, but fun two player game. We will also discuss the strategy needed to win the game! We will learn how to play the game "NIM" and practice by playing against our classmates on Zoom. Then we will make the game using Python. Students will program in the class and will be challenged to apply concepts previously learned to make NIM. We will review concepts and then apply them in this context. To take this course, your child needs to be able to type with a speed of at least 20 WPM. Your learner should have done some basic programming previously, preferably in Python. They should have a working knowledge of: -variables, console input and output, and random numbers We will review these topics in class, but they will struggle if this is their first exposure to these concepts. Topics covered: -Planning a program/game prior to coding -nested while loops -random numbers -if-statements -printing using variables
Learning Goals
Students will practice previously learned skills in a new context
Students will create a two-player game while considering what makes a program user-friendly
Students will discover the strategy needed to win the game using logical problem-solving skills
Other Details
Parental Guidance
Students will need a laptop or device with a full keyboard, and ideally will access the Outschool classroom on this device while also coding. Chromebooks are ok, tablets are not ideal.
Supply List
Students need a laptop or desktop with a full keyboard, not a tablet or phone. Students need to be able to type to complete this class. A handout will be provided and it is recommended that students print this handout.
