I don't manage the edu-sig web page any more, for python.org, but
could see where a link to this thesis would look handsome right next
to bullet 5: "John Miller's PhD dissertation, Promoting Computer
Literacy Through Programming Python (1.37 MB), looks at the issues
around teaching with Python, and explores some of the threads taken up
on edu-sig."

I hope it might help some of you, because I've found that material of
documented application
of the Python language in class still appears a bit scarce...
Thank you Fotis, I have been reading this all morning, had not seen it
before. Thank you for bringing it to my attention.
I've mostly documented by classroom work in my blogs, but usually in
connection with Saturday Academy, which doesn't compete to offer
transferable credits, only skills and its own credential, which does
count for something. This is not the same as having an established
state school recognize Python as a good learning language. I salute
the Pedagogical Institute for having some vision.

ps.
Some people might just enjoy the (anecdotal) information on other languages.
cheers,
Fotis
