42 videos and exercises to introduce beginners to Python

A fabulous set of tutorials to get you going using Python. These are not ordinary 'watch and repeat' tutorials that you traditionally find on the internet. Each video will set a task for the learner to complete and if the learner needs a little support to complete the task then there is always a solution video on hand too. No prior knowledge of python required.

There are 6 distinct python tasks to make. A simple calculator program, a hi lo game, a magic 8 ball, a random name picker, the fizz buzz game and a Pythagoras calculator. These would keep new programmers busy in class for a fair few hours and this app is an ideal tool to help cover the requirements of the new computing curriculum.

Users will need to download Python and we will be using the IDLE IDE to get going.

If you want to check out the content of these videos for free before downloading then they are available as a free app on iOS and Android.

If you do purchase the videos then you are granted a licence to place them on a shared area within your school or on a VLE that requires a user ID and password to access (no guest access). Basically as long as the general public can't get to them then that fine...
