    Office Hours will be conducted through a Zoom session. The links to the office hours will be posted the first week of
    class.

    Video and Written Lectures


    This class will include written lecture notes and both recorded videos and real-time Zoom videos. The Zoom videos will
    be scheduled weekly and will commence the second week of class. A survey of the class will be conducted the first week
    to get feedback on the best time for real-time zoom sessions

    Course Overview
    This is an introductory course teaching the Python Programming language. Python is one of the more popular
    programming language and is used in a wide variety of circumstances. You find Python used in cyber security, data
    analysis, and other areas. This class does not assume that the student has any experience with Python or has experience
    writing computer programs.

    Learning a programming language consists of three main parts, learning the logic of the programming language, learning
    the “syntax” of the language, and learning how to design a program. The Syntax consists of the rules for writing
    programming code. The logic of the programming language consists of learning what kinds of data the language can use,
    how the language loops code, stores data, and makes decisions. Learning the logic of a programming language helps
    when learning a second programming language because most programming languages share the same logical structures
    (only the syntax is different).

    The third part is learning how to create a program. This involves learning how to break down a problem into pieces,
    define the relationship between the pieces, test the operation of design, and write down the program using the
    programming language. Like the logical structures in the programming language, the learned skill of designing a
    computer program will work with most all programming languages.

    Students in this class will also learn to use an Integrated Development Environment (IDE) to code their Python programs.
    The IDE used in this class will be Thonny.

    This class uses the Canvas online system. You can access Canvas at:

    https://fullcoll.instructure.com

    and login with your student ID number and MyGateway password.

    In Class you will Learn


    • How to install and use the Thonny IDE
    • How to design a computer program
    • How to test your program design
    • How the Python logical structures work
    • How to write and debug a Python program

    How you will be evaluated


    You will be evaluated on assignments, quizzes, and discussion questions. The assignments will consist of completing
    MyProgrammingLab assignments, completing Canvas Programming projects, participating in posted discussions, and
    taking timed quizzes on python programming topics. The quizzes will be multiple choice timed exams that will cover
    topics presented in lectures and in posted videos.

    Each of the assignments, quizzes, and discussions will be given a point value. The final student grade will be based on the
    total number of points for the course. The final grade will be based on a percentage of these points

    90 to 100% = A
    80 to 90% = B
    65 to 80% = C
    50 to 65% = D

    Student Learning Outcomes


    1. Outcome: Create, execute, and test Python applications using a development environment.
    2. Outcome: Use functions and control structures, including selection and iteration to solve different kinds of
    programming problems.
    3. Outcome: Demonstrate an understanding of the class structure in PYTHON.

    What you will need for this class


    The textbook this class is based on is:

    MY LAB PROGRAMMING W/PEARSON E-TEXT


    Author: GADDIS
    Edition: 5
    ISBN: 9780136679110

    This textbook is available through the site www.MyProgrammingLab.com

    The code for this online material can be purchased in the bookstore or purchased at:
    https://mlm.pearson.com/northamerica/myprogramminglab/students/get-
    registered/index.html

    You will also need a computer (either PC or Mac) in order to run Python and the Thonny IDE. Both Python and Thonny
    are free.

    Getting Started
    In order to start this class you need to:
