關於 Python 程式設計夏令營 |現場 Python 初學者夏令營

Your student will learn how to code with Python, one of the world's most popular coding languages. There is no coding experience necessary for this class, and it will be fun for everyone! Students will even code their own mad libs game and rock, paper, scissors game using Python code. Your student will be amazed at what they can do at the end of this summer camp and be ready to continue their coding journey.  Students can continue learning more in Level II camps and also a camp focusing on game development with Python!  Students will need to be very comfortable typing with two hands and know how to copy/paste on their device.

Build Fun Games with Python 

Over the last 3 days of the camp, students will complete fun games and projects with Python. These projects include:

Minutes in Day Mini Project
Class Greeting Mini Project
Mad Libs
Rock, Paper, Scissors
Spiral Animation Project

These projects allow students to apply what they have learned with Python while building fun projects.

Interactive Groups Build the Foundation of Code Skills

Every student is encouraged to post questions, sample code, and their projects every step of the way. This gives students the chance to learn from each other and start practicing reading code. The instructor will also be providing feedback and guidance regularly throughout the course. 

The class is a supportive, positive, and fun environment for all students! There is no coding or computer science experience required for this class. 

Technology Requirements
Students will use the Raspberry Pi Python code editor for this class. This is a free code editor and will work on any Windows, Apple Mac, Chromebook, or Linux computer. Students should use a laptop or desktop computer for the class with a full keyboard.
