Experience the need & intuition of language features from practical coding and project driven approach. Learn how to express your computational thoughts with language features instead of byhearting language syntaxes and also learn to use IDEs for syntax help.
The Python Language Learning Course aims for an experiential and joyful journey of learning python language by giving project driven real software development approach. We take an experiential approach with following key ideas for this course:
1) People get messed up in language learning by properly byhearting the syntaxes and syntax examples without knowing essence of features. In this course, we do not encourage syntax byheart by any means and instead, make you realize the intent of the feature with practical experiences.
2) People learn language with approaches like notes writing, studying the theory of each feature with an example and think that they know language. You know the language better and start enjoying the language only when you start developing projects with what you learned. In this course, we provide the series of useful projects that makes you experience the joy of software building.
3) Most people byheart FAQs to clear job test/interviews. By luck, even if u get a job, you feel nightmare in writing real software. In this course, you are given assignment or interview questions for each topic after you have a practical understanding of the topic. You should able to think logically and solve those questions. This gives you an enormous self-confidence in job interviews and also real software development in a company.
