Description
The python programming language is the next level beyond Scratch and is used extensively as an introduction to coding. Its syntax is simple and it has some very powerful features built into the language. It offers great flexibility in application, from games to websites. This workshop will focus on a mix of Python basics and mathematical algorithms. The basics will then be used to build a more complex application. Participation in Computational Thinking, Scratch 1&2 is highly recommended (but not essential) before attending this workshop.
About the organiser
Bridge21 are proud to offer several innovative computing workshops for teachers and educators. After participation in the workshops (details below), participants will have developed a number of new technical skills and will be confident planning activities involving digital media production, programming and computational thinking. The workshops will also be useful for educators and mentors who are engaged in informal education through Club-houses, CoderDojo, TechSpace and other similar youth programmes.
All of the sessions are hands-on in nature and are delivered using the Bridge21 learning model. Most workshops will take place in Trinity College Dublin, and selected workshops will take place in our purpose-designed learning space in Oriel House, Fenian Street, Dublin 2, which is located just off the main Trinity College Dublin campus – (see map here). Others will be run at Google Buildings in Grand Canal Dock. The workshops are subject to availability of resources and sufficient demand.
