A practical 16-week Python track covering fundamentals, data handling, APIs, automation, and final product delivery.

Estimated Time: 120 minAge Group: 12-17
Python Developer Educational Plan (16 Weeks)

What You'll Learn

  • Develop reliable Python CLI applications
  • Work with files, JSON data, and external APIs
  • Ship a tested and documented final product

Program Goal

This track turns foundation-level learners into practical Python builders. Every module ends in implementation tasks that simulate real-world development workflow.

Delivery Model

  • Duration: 16 weeks
  • Frequency: 2 sessions per week
  • Session length: 90 minutes
  • Total sessions: 32

Module Breakdown

Phase 1: Python Fundamentals (Weeks 1-4)

  • Python syntax and clean code conventions
  • Control flow with conditions and loops
  • Data structures: lists, dictionaries, tuples
  • Functions and modular files

Phase 2: Problem Solving and Data Work (Weeks 5-8)

  • String/list problem-solving drills
  • File input/output and CSV basics
  • Error handling with try/except
  • Mini Project 1: Data utility CLI tool

Phase 3: Practical Automation and APIs (Weeks 9-12)

  • Modules, package usage, and reusable code
  • HTTP requests and JSON response handling
  • Local automation scripts for repetitive tasks
  • Mini Project 2: API-driven reporting utility

Phase 4: Product Delivery Cycle (Weeks 13-16)

  • Product definition and architecture draft
  • Implementation sprint
  • Refactor, test, and documentation pass
  • Final defense and public demo

Assessment Framework

  • Weekly labs and assignments: 40%
  • Quizzes and concept checks: 20%
  • Mini projects + final product: 40%

Final Project Requirements

  • Clear user problem and scope
  • Working Python application
  • Test cases and debugging evidence
  • Short technical documentation
  • Live demo and Q&A
