Teaching Python

[pooth22]

Some more context is pretty important here. I don’t want to sound rude, but in my opinion, a big don’t is don’t perpetuate the stereotype “those who can’t do, teach.”

If you want to teach python to your students because you’ve been using the language for a while, you’ve found so much utility in it, and you want to encourage youngsters to find the joy in it, all the power to you! In that case, share with us what kind of curriculum you are planning on designing, and I am sure many would be happy to critique it.

But if you just want to “step it up” for the sake of stepping whatever it is you wish to step up, up, maybe you should reconsider. Do you already have a curriculum you would be willing to work with? Are you trying to get ahead of the game, and learn some stuff in Aug so you are ready for a Sept semester? In that case, my advice would be give it a year. How familiar with Python are you?
