Andre, Thanks for your efforts putting this together. As the text stands right now I'd have a hard time recommending it over CS Unplugged (http://csunplugged.org/). You are covering very advanced concepts at times on a single page, and in some cases I would question the value of learning that concept in an intro text (threads, network ports, dictionary data structure). You use exception notation at times (try/except) that I think would confuse a beginner audience (why not just build on the if/then concept?).
Most of the teachers I know that would be candidates for this (elementary / middle school) would have a hard time teaching from the text and would need quite a bit of supplemental information to understand the concept being taught. I would study the level of detail you see in the (free, creative commons) CS Unplugged modules to get a sense for how much needs to be explained to get even basic concepts across. Thanks for asking, Chris Brooks _______________________________________________ Edu-sig mailing list Edu-sig@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/edu-sig
