Every first and third Thursday of each month PS:One holds Python Office Hours. This is a chance for people learning to program in Python to get together for moral support, project assistance, and homework assistance. We’ll have an experienced python developer or two on hand to help answer questions and explain difficult concepts.
This is an “office hours” event with volunteer teaching assistants. The expectation is that students watch lectures, read tutorials and attempt homework on their own, then use this as a resource to aid in learning.
Who: everyone is welcome, regardless of skill level!
When: First and Third Thursdays of each month, 7pm
Where: Pumping Station: One 3519 N. Elston, Chicago, IL 60618
Cost: Free ($5 recommended donation to help us keep the lights on!)
If you don't already have something to work on, look through the resources below for something to try.
