Course Overview
Python Made Easy for Beginners: Get help from Toons and Robots!
InPython Course - Coding for Kids is a practical Python programming course that provides fun, cartoon-style videos and hands-on learning experiences with the Micro:bit and Edison robot. The course is aimed at students aged 11 and above.
The course offers a range of tools and resources, including funny cartoon-style video clips, quizzes, crosswords, exercises, solutions to the exercises, educational games, projects, documents, and slides. The videos are unique in that they feature cartoon characters with distinct and funny personalities.
The course also includes educational robotics activities using the Edison robot, which can be programmed with Python. This allows students to see their code come to life and achieve the educational goals of each unit. In addition, the course now offers activities with the Micro:bit microcontroller, which can also be programmed with MicroPython.
Users can skip the corresponding sections if they do not own an Edison robot or Micro:bit.
Upon completing the course, students will gain a strong understanding of key concepts related to computing, including critical thinking, problem decomposition, pattern recognition, abstraction, and algorithms.
Students will also learn to write, test, and modify algorithms for a program using flowcharts and pseudocode.
Additionally, they will understand programming constructs like variables, data types, and logic, and learn to use iteration, conditional statements, procedures, and functions to improve efficiency and functionality in a program.
Finally, they will learn to test and debug a program to ensure it meets requirements before release.
