The Python summer camp is intended for students with no previous computer coding experience and will introduce them to the basics of programming with the popular coding language, Python. Students are given the choice of participating in the level 1 course or both the level 1 and 2 course. As students develop their coding abilities, they will also learn other meaningful skills such as critical thinking and problem solving. At the end of each week, marking the conclusion of a level, students will attempt a challenging project with the skills they have learned during the course.

By the end of this winter camp, students will develop vital problem solving and critical thinking skills necessary to flourish in the field of computer science. Students will be equipped with fundamental programming skills in Python and will be given the opportunity to apply their knowledge in various side-projects like a number guessing game, hangman and different calculators that can make everyday math more convenient. The course will be interactive, with the majority of the lesson consisting of live demonstrations to help students discover the topics for themselves. Throughout our 6 classes, we will be covering all the basics to code in Python, from variables to loops, and how to apply these tools given to us.
Date: December 26 to 31
Time: 4:30-6:00 PM MST
