- 3. Why a Teaching Stack? Were going to be doing this more than once.
- 4. An Example Stack: Young Coders Tutorial Student Materials Access: Github Pages Coding Environment: IDLE & Raspberry Pi Instructor Coding Environment: IDLE & Raspberry Pi Assignments: Self made; on Github Materials: Self made; on Github
- 5. Elements of a Teaching Stack Student Materials Access Coding Environment Instructor Coding Environment Assignments Materials Source
- 6. Example Teaching Stack: Software Carpentry Student Materials Access: Github Pages Coding Environment: Anaconda & Bash Instructor Coding Environment: Anaconda & Bash Assignments: Github repository Materials Source: software-carpentry.org
- 7. Teaching Stack Best Practices Student Materials Access Coding Environment Instructor Coding Environment Assignments Materials Put materials on the Web for free. Use the same coding setup that students do to avoid confusion Use open materials that at least one other person has worked on or used 1. 2. 3.
- 8. The Best Stack? Depends on your students: PhD Scientists Middle School Students Programmers Adult Beginners Undergraduates K12 Teachers

- 18. Do I Use Best Practices? Put materials on the Web for free. Use the same coding setup that students do to avoid confusion Use open materials that at least one other person has worked on or used 1. 2. 3. Student Materials Access: Github Pages Coding Environment: Trinket & Nitrous.io Instructor Coding Environment: Trinket & Nitrous.io Assignments: Codingbat.com & Custom Materials Source: Interactivepython.org
- 19. And now. Lets put Python in your Python so you can code while you code (aka I did a demo here)
- 20. Awesome Resources for Teaching Coding Env Anaconda Nitrous.io PyCharm Wakari JES Materials & Assgnts. interactivepython.org codingbat.com Python koans Other Tools IPython Notebooks Trinket.io
