Hi ali -- Just wanted to say Mabuhay -- I have fond memories of the Philippines from being a student in Metro-Manila from 1971-1976 (at the International School in Makati). My dad worked on decentralized planning, taught a course at UP. Mom was an activist working on behalf of tribal minorities and earned a history degree at Ateneo de Manila (we weren't missionaries though). We visited Baguio a few times. A man named McGee was a headmaster of some local school back then, but I forget which. Anyway, here are some college level courses that use Python, which you might get some ideas from: http://www.classes.cs.uchicago.edu/classes/archive/2001/spring/CS326/syllabu... http://sandbox.mc.edu/~gwiggins/syllabi/csc233/csc233-python-syllabus.html http://www.physics.umd.edu/courses/Phys165/williams/ Kirby At 05:25 PM 7/26/2002 +0800, Ronald Mangaliag wrote:
hi... this is my first post so please take it easy on me.... ;)
i'm in the process of gathering info to suggest a change in the syllabus of our programming course here in saint louis university, philippines...
i was thinking (for more than a month now) of suggesting a change in the programming language also... we're teaching C to engineering studes... and of course, the "natural tendency" is to change it to python because of the known advantages...
my question is -- can you point me (url or anything) or give me a sample syllabus where we can pattern our proposal to...
tnx... in advance...
ali
