found simple example of Scratch-PY https://learn.edublocks.org/tutorial/home-learning#2 https://edublocks.org/Basic-Coding-Set.pdf and in kind of direct python in blocks https://app.edublocks.org/#Python On Thu, Oct 8, 2020 at 6:05 AM Jurgis Pralgauskis < jurgis.pralgauskis@gmail.com> wrote:
Hi,
Currently at high-school senior classes programing is taught in C/C++ (in my country, Lithuania). This is mostly because graduation-exams are allowed to be taken with it (and programming olympiads, though now they allow py <https://olympiad.org.za/programming-olympiad/rules/>). And teachers are used to it and have dedicated textbooks.
But it is kind of clumsy for learning basics - py/js are much more popular and fun for that. Python mostly rocks for its syntax, and JS for its application in web-dev.
Few personal initiatives are to moderninze the content. But most of them from C-syntax world -- Java/C#/JS, and few Py.
*I think best would be to make a course/textbook with parallel code examples for JS/PY *(maybe some version with C/C++ for reference - for teachers to be easier to switch) Parallel JS-PY is also possible with some edu-environments: blockly/processing/reeborg
*Maybe you know of any such courses -- for programming basics?* ps.: I tried to put up simple <http://codeintro.popo.lt/2015/10/14/pazintis-su-programavimu-1-veiksmai-ir-s...> example/article <http://codeintro.popo.lt/2015/10/14/pazintis-su-programavimu-1-veiksmai-ir-s...> how it could look like (in my native lang).
