- We will review our big ideas from our last class. Today is Friday, so we have current events!
- We will break into two groups
- more comfortable with Python
- less comfortable with Python
- We will discuss two differnt interfaces to working with a computer operating system:
- If you are less comfortable with Python
- Please bookmark this link
- Please bookmark this link
- Watch this first, and follow all directions
- Watch this second and follow all directions
- Please create some windows using this cookbook and design patterns
- I expect you to physically sit next to our students in the less-comfortable group and walk them through creating a gui.
- We will return to objectives and problem sets in our next class
- We will review our learning
Statement of Inquiry
The big idea for today is Computational thinking.
The essential questions for this topic are:
How do we think about problems in a way which makes them solvable for a computer?
It takes time to explore and really understand a big idea. If you want to

.
We are learning this because as a designers must understand scientific and technical innovation. Designers use systems, models, methods, and processes to solve problems.
Reminders & routines:
