Thirty students with prior experience coding in Python on Replit participated in a comprehensive and interactive coding session. They were given ample time for hands-on practice, tackling engaging challenges, and problem-solving activities, with teachers available to assist as needed. Fun coding challenges added to the excitement, with students winning chocolate prizes for their efforts. The curriculum covered essential Python topics, including functions, inputs, lists, conditionals, indices, comparators, and internet safety, providing a solid introduction to the language. The sessions were taught by Christopher Gholmieh, Saahir Kadri, Mida Chung, and Zhewei Wan. In the context of AP Computer Science, Python’s importance lies in its simplicity and readability, making it an ideal language for beginners and a powerful tool for advanced programming concepts, fostering a deep understanding of computational thinking and problem-solving.
