Python Workshop, Dec 11

Just wanted to remind everyone that our next chapter meeting, on Saturday, December 11, is a double header:

• the Fall Programming Contest for students, 8:30 am - 2:30 pm

plus

• a Python Programming Workshop for teachers, 10:00 am - 1:00 pm

Details about the programming contest are here.

Details about the Python workshop are here.

And here is Greg's invite for the workshop, which will be taught by Garfield HS CS teacher extraordinaire Hélène Martin:

We are planning on offering clock hours (three) for those certificated teachers that attend. The fee is $10 (cash or check made out to PS ESD) to receive clock hours.  The objectives of the workshop are:

• Learn basic Python syntax.
• Gain familiarity with several Python frameworks that support instruction.
• Compare Python to other commonly taught programming environments including Java and Scratch.

Hope to see you and your students at the Programming Contest on December 11th.
