You might rename this page SchoolsTeachingPython. This page covers schools that use Python in the curriculum even if they aren't teaching Python. This may seem subtle, but it is an important distinction. -- KevinAltis |
Introduction
This is a listing of schools that are using Python in their curriculum.
I would like to confirm each of the schools below by linking to a specific web page with a course listing and/or the professor(s) teaching classes that involve the use of Python. Each listing should be expanded with a description of how Python is being used. -- KevinAltis
Need to copy info from:
High Schools
Yorktown High School, in Arlington Virginia ([http://www.elkner.net/ Jeff Elkner])
Colleges and Universities
Australia
- University of New South Wales
- Computer science taught/teaches course(s) with Python (as of about 2001)
Canada
- University of Waterloo
One of the more prestigious engineering/comp-sci schools in Canada is using it officially in [http://www.student.cs.uwaterloo.ca/~cs488/ CS488 (Intro to 3D graphics)], and I'm told there's lots of use among faculty, staff and students. I don't think they actually teach much Python, they're focused on teaching OpenGL/graphics programming, but they do wind up using it as the framework into which the students slot their code.
- Cégep du Vieux-Montréal
- Used for Advanced Web Development course (420-B63-VM)
Note: Cégeps are collegiate level schools giving a 2 year pre-university program or a 3 year professionnal program such as [http://www.cvm.qc.ca/informatique/pages/main.html Computing Technology]
