Class 01 — Hello, Python / What Is Electricity?¶

Example page

This page demonstrates the per-class template with brief, neutral placeholder text. It is not final lesson content.

Python focus: Output with print(); basic arithmetic expressions Electronics focus: Voltage, current, and resistance as a working mental model Kit materials: Computer with Python 3, 4×AA battery holder, jumper wires, multimeter (instructor)

Demo¶

The instructor runs a short Python program that prints a greeting, then closes a simple circuit to light an LED — framing code and circuits as the two halves of the course.

Code-Along¶

Students write a one-line print() statement, then experiment with additional messages and simple arithmetic in the interactive shell.

Independent Practice¶

Each student writes a short program that prints a brief self-introduction across multiple lines.

Show & Tell¶

Students run their introduction program for the group and explain one electricity term — voltage, current, or resistance — in their own words.

Code for this class¶

print("Hello, world!")
print("My name is", "Ada")
print(2 + 2)
