  • Skill Level: Beginner–Intermediate
  • Format: iD Tech Camps | Small-Group, On-Campus
  • Duration: Weeklong program, 8 hours per day

About This Course

Begin your journey into computer programming with Python, one of the most in-demand coding languages in the world! You’ll develop essential programming skills by working through logic games and learning foundational algorithms. Once you have your feet wet, you’ll go all-in by designing your own arcade-style game. Deepen your understanding of computational thinking and grow more ambitious with every project! Beginning with Python will start you on a long and fulfilling path in coding and STEM.

Topics Covered

  • Learn to code with Python
  • Implement fundamental algorithms in code
  • Gain computational thinking skills
  • Design interactive arcade-style games

Sample Schedule

Here’s a sample of what a week in the course could look like! Please keep in mind that students will progress at varying paces; this is a general outline of the key material and overall student experience.

Students will explore the fundamentals of Python with an introduction to variables, user interaction, and conditionals. Using these skills, they’ll start coding an interactive mad libs project.

Next, advance to coding while loops, random number generation, and functions — which will enable students to create more advanced programs.

Utilizing object-oriented programming, students will define classes and inheritance relationships. Then, they’ll begin exploring the PyGame library.

Students will incorporate features like 2D movement, collision detection, and obstacles into the custom games they build with PyGame.

To wrap up the week, students will polish their games with custom features and finalize their projects.

Portfolio-Boosting Diploma & Transcript

At the conclusion of your child's course, they will receive an official iD Tech diploma and course transcript outlining the skills they learned over the course of the week.

Frequently Asked Questions

Python is one of a handful of great programming languages for kids, handling everything from web dev and game design to machine learning and AI. Not only is Python versatile and relatively easier to learn - thanks to its simplified syntax and focus on whitespace - it’s one of the most exciting and lucrative 21st century programming languages around.

By combining coding with creating arcade games and impressive AI tech, kids can add creativity with the logic of programming for a uniquely well-rounded learning experience. Experts agree that  Python is the most compatible programming language for machine learning and artificial intelligence.

Python programming skills are a must-have for concentrations like computer science, game design, engineering, and other STEM college majors. Plus, it’s one of the most high-paying programming skills out there. It’s hardly surprising, then, that lucrative, cutting-edge careers in data science, software engineering, and many more are on the rise! Learn more with 10 Reasons to Learn Python.
