• 靖恩和佳恩 Python 程式設計課程，每週六 9:00-10:30。
• Pairing Khan Academy’s “Intro to Computer Science – Python” course with Thonny is a great way to combine the strengths of both platforms:
  • Khan Academy: Teaches concepts interactively in a browser.
  • Thonny: Lets students write, run, and debug code in a real Python environment.

How to Pair Khan Academy with Thonny

🔗 How to Pair Khan Academy with Thonny
🧭 Step 1: Use Khan Academy to learn concepts
Direct your students to follow lessons and complete exercises on
 https://www.khanacademy.org/computing/intro-to-python-fundamentals


Encourage them to watch the videos, try the interactive tasks, and read the explanations


💻 Step 2: Recreate or expand activities in Thonny
Once they complete a coding task on Khan Academy:
Open Thonny


Create a new file (e.g., my_program.py)


Type out the same code from the Khan activity—or rewrite it in their own words


Run and test the program in Thonny


Experiment: Modify the code to explore new behavior
 For example:


Change variable values


Add print statements


Add comments (#) to explain logic


🔄 Step 3: Reinforce learning with projects
After each unit (e.g., variables, loops), assign a mini project in Thonny using what they just learned


Examples:


After “functions” → build a calculator


After “loops” → print a triangle pattern



🧠 Benefits of This Pairing
Khan Academy
Thonny
Interactive, guided lessons
Real-world Python environment
Auto-checking and hints
Full control and debugging tools
Ideal for concept introduction
Ideal for hands-on practice


✏️ Suggested Routine for Your Students
Watch Khan video + do the exercise


Rewrite and expand the code in Thonny


Save and share their .py file


Add a reflection (what they learned or struggled with)

When people start learning Python, do they need to know or use Flask?


ChatGPT 說：
No, people do not need to learn Flask when they first start learning Python.

🎯 Why Flask Isn't Needed at the Start
✅ When you're just starting, focus on:
Python syntax and data types (e.g., strings, numbers, lists)

Control structures (if, for, while)

Functions and loops

Basic input/output

File handling

Optional: using Thonny or a simple IDE

Example beginner programs:

python
複製
編輯
name = input("What is your name? ")
print(f"Hello, {name}!")
🧱 When to Learn Flask
You should start learning Flask after you've mastered the basics of Python and are ready to:

Build web apps or online tools

Handle user forms and input over the internet

Connect Python to a front-end like HTML or JavaScript

Work with databases or create REST APIs

🧠 Learning Path Suggestion
Stage	Focus
Beginner	Core Python (variables, loops, logic)
Intermediate	Functions, modules, file I/O, error handling
Advanced	OOP, libraries (e.g., requests, pandas)
Web Development	Flask, databases, HTML/CSS, APIs

✅ Summary
Learn Flask only after you're comfortable with Python basics.
If you're teaching teens or beginners, Flask can wait until they're building projects that require web interaction.
