Description:
A complete introductory Python debugging course that helps students learn how to identify, explain and repair common programming errors.
The 10 activities progress from simple syntax mistakes, such as incorrect capitalisation, missing quotation marks and brackets, through to indentation errors, variable problems, data type errors, comparison operators and infinite loops. Students are encouraged to run the program, read the error message, find the relevant line and make the smallest useful fix.
The teacher presentation includes clear explanations, teaching prompts, readable code examples with line numbers and sample solutions. Student handouts and Python starter files allow learners to work through each bug independently, while the bug detective checklist provides reusable support without giving away every answer.
Included:
- Teacher PowerPoint with clear code and line numbers
- 10 student activity handouts
- 10 broken Python starter files
- Sample fixes and explanations
- One-page bug detective checklist
- PythonCopy links for classroom use
Suitable for:
KS3, GCSE Computer Science, beginner Python lessons, cover lessons, revision activities and introductory debugging practice.
