OT: Ideas for a first course using Python

[ishwar.rattan at gmail.com]

Sorry to butt in but I am shopping for some ideas.

I am interested in putting together a programming course for non-
programmers (outside the computer science domain) based on Pyhton. I
envision the course
similar to ones that used old-Basic interpreter.

Any one out there has such a course (already designed) or has some
experience
of such a course?

What could be a list of topics to be addressed in such a course
(domain), other
than the language syntax?
