Class Experience

Have you tried Python and want to learn more?  In this one-time class, we will learn the "next steps" in Python: if-statements and random numbers.
We will learn how to get Python to make decisions and make a Rock-Paper-Scissors game by the end.  Students will program in the class and will be challenged to apply concepts in many examples and challenges.  Students will be introduced to a concept and then try examples, looking for patterns and drawing inferences.  The teacher will insure mastery over the material.
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 (variables and printing).
Topics covered:
-How do computers make decisions
-if-statements
-AND, OR, and NOT (logical operators)
-Random Integers
-Putting it all together to make a Rock-Paper-Scissors Game

Learning Goals

Students will learn how computers make decisions
Students will create code with if-statements and logical operators
Students will apply their programming skills to make a simple game
Students will think computationally to solve programming challenges
