Ideas #2

Open bskinny129 opened 11 years ago

bskinny129 commented 11 years ago

What do you guys think about adding extensions or take home problems? Any ideas?

One would be to add a timer to the multiplication game:

import time, datetime, random
start_time = datetime.datetime.now()
typing = raw_input('>') end_time = datetime.datetime.now() difference = end_time - start_time print difference.seconds

What about whole take home projects? The CoderDojoSF has a tic-tac-toe walk through: https://github.com/CoderDojoSF/tic-tac-toe. Maybe we could point them to this after Day 3?

We could have one or two specific take home projects that are like Day 1's "count how many times the user gave a wrong answer", and also provide a few links/ideas at the end of the session for bigger take home projects for kids who want to go a bit further.
