Programming on paper

 

For the Python programming course, I prepared one activity on paper, because I noticed more collaboration and interactivity was needed. This is one issue when teaching programming: it is seen as an individual activity, but this is not the full picture. Even when working remotely, it is important to know how to explain problems and solutions. For this reason, I proposed this exercise to be solved in pairs. I planned for 30 minutes, but it took one hour. Anyway, I think it was valuable; I plan to do it earlier in next courses.
