Programación Python | Principiante | 10 semanas SP | 10 semanas de código

In this course, we will learn how to program in Python from the ground up. Each module will have an in-depth video explaining the concepts and working through building programs and examples of concepts. From the very beginning steps into programming (the basics of Python) to more complicated programs, we will build up the skills to make our own programs and learn to code. Weekly modules will cover different topics, and scaffold skills so we are able to build more complex programs and think of new ways to solve coding challenges. 

Each module will have an overview of the topic we are going to cover, activities and games to learn, build on, and reinforce concepts. We will cover the basics of programming, learn about variables, and ways to store and use information in lists, dictionaries, tuples, and other structures. We will also learn about conditional statements to sort data, and user input and loops. The course will focus on fun and interesting examples to help students understand concepts that can be applied elsewhere.

Because this is a flex class, students will get detailed videos each week that cover the topic of the week, as well as handouts or PowerPoint slides that cover the topic. Students have a weekly assignment at the end of each module, and post their code to the classroom. Students will be provided with video feedback on their code. Feedback will be provided  so learners can work on improving the fundamentals of coding as we work through the course and build the skills need to learn programming.
