Details

*Due to the response we received, we have changed this meetup to TUESDAY, 7.45 PM, at HackerspaceSG. (near coffee shot!)Address: 344B King George’s Avenue, Singapore 208576

This is the first of the Python basics study group! We will be meeting up to get to know the group's dynamics and get to know one another better. From there, we will introduce the plan and schedule for the study group. There will be no working on Python at this meetup.

  1. Programming Foundations Online Course (FREE) with Udacity (https://www.udacity.com/course/programming-foundations-with-python--ud036)

  2. Learn Python The Hard Way eBook (http://learnpythonthehardway.org/book/)

What is this meetup about?

It's an introduction to our first Python MOOC study group. We will get to know each other better on the 18th of April, as well as the plans for each study group session.

What should I take note of before attending this event?

You should attend only if you are able to commit to meeting up once a week with the rest of your group to work on your progress together.

Who should attend?

If you've been wanting to learn Python for a while, but have no idea where or how to start, or lack the motivation to start, come join us. I will be organising you guys into groups of preferably 4-5 people (depending on the turnout).

What do I need to bring to this event?

Your excited self! Nothing else is needed - no laptops. We are just here to mingle and get to know other people who are interested in learning beginner Python. Please keep promotion of your services/products to the bare, bare minimum. If you're not interested in committing one day a week to meeting your group mates to learn Python, then I will appreciate if you could give the RSVP slot to someone else who is.

What should I expect?

A crowd of people who are looking to learn Python in small study groups. I understand that everyone has their own weekly schedule to adhere to, so I would like to organise the study group sessions to take place in the most convenient place and time for everyone. By the end of this session, everyone should have an idea who their study group mates will be, and their study group schedule.

I'm not interested in Python, can you organise one for X?

Yes of course! Please indicate your interests here on this survey form (http://bit.ly/1MYwl62). Feel free to send me a message on MeetUp as well.

Note to all who RSVP'd YES to this event:

Please take note that I take your commitment to learning seriously, so I will also appreciate the effort on your end to turn up for the event and study groups punctually. If you have something else to attend to, please change your RSVP to 'No' 1 working day BEFORE the event. Thank you so much!
