EzGraphics: Python graphics for the classroom: conference workshop
Rance D. Necaise · Journal of computing sciences in colleges · 2015
The benefits of using graphics and image processing to help illustrate and reinforce basic programming concepts in introductory courses is well known. With the increasing use of Python in the introductory courses, however, instructors may find that the standard Python graphics package is too complex and difficult for beginning students. This workshop will introduce a new Python graphics module that can be used in the classroom to create and manipulate a wide range of graphical drawings and digital images. The EzGraphics package provides a simple yet powerful framework that makes it ideal for both the beginner and more advanced programmers. Participants will work through a variety of exercises from very basic shape drawing and user interaction to more advanced image processing and animation examples.
