Python Resource Pack 4
Python Resource Pack 4 is a set of coding challenges designed to support the teaching and learning of the Python programming language.
This pack is designed for those who have some experience of programming in Python, such as completing the exercises in Resource Packs 1, 2 and 3. It is suitable for teaching Python in schools from Year 8 onwards, tutors and learners in adult learning classes or for the hobbyist learning at home.
The pack gives learners an opportunity to practice debugging (fixing) third party code rather than their own. It consists of six graduated programs, all with errors in them, which need to be studied and the bugs diagnosed and corrected.
The pack is designed to support learning that has previously taken place in the classroom, via self-directed study, or by following tutorials.
The pack contains:
- Six programs with bugs in them.
- Working solutions to each of the six programs.
- A pdf file ‘Cheat Sheet’ for teachers/tutors explaining where the bugs are.
The challenges are designed so that self-directed research will be required to complete them; they are not a cut-and-paste tutorial.
