파이썬 프로그래밍 | 초보자 | 파이썬 코딩 캠프(13-18세)

Welcome to Python Coding Camp for Beginners (Ages 13-18)! In this camp format class, we are going to work on learning Python from the very beginning with fun and interesting examples. 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. Python is one of the world's most popular programming languages, used from exploring space to artificial intelligence and millions of things between. In the first part of the course course we are going to focus on five data structures and methods: variables, lists, loops, dictionaries, and conditional statements to code amazing programs.

Each class in the camp 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 class will introduce new fun ideas and games, 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.

Course modules will cover:
Module 1: Introduction to Python
We will talk about variables, and work on programs to explore variables, strings, integers, and floats. We will also build a dog age calculator and work on different ways to and print strings.

Module 2: Lists
We will do a deep dive into the world of lists and build programs that draw from lists including a changing story based on random selections from the contents of lists.

Module 3: Loops
Our first examination of for loops and the ways we can use them with variables and lists to make things run over and over again without needed extra lines of code. 

Module 4: Conditional Statements
Conditional statements will let us sort though data, and we will use if/elif/else statements to sort through data, play a game against the computer, and organize our data by condition

Module 5: Dictionaires 
Once we have covered the basics, we will work on the next data type in python, dictionaries. These let us store more complex kinds of data, and organize our code in key and value pairs. 

Module 6: Connected Data
We are going to expand our knowledge of Python and using dictionaries, learn about live JSON data, connect and build programs that update with the weather, who is in space, meme creator, and more

Module 7: Building a Text Based Adventure Game
In this class we are going to work on setting up an adventure game using functions and start introducing the idea of non-linear code

Module 8: Animation, Turtle, Text to Speech, and other Projects
In our final class we will work on some of the things we can do with Python, explore packages, and build some really amazing programs

Each session will include fun games, activities and programs we create together that we can explore as we code.
