<p class="MsoNormal">Hi folks, <u></u><u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Sorry if this has been asked before, but I am in the process of transitioning from <a href="http://VB.NET" target="_blank">VB.NET</a> this year to Python for next year. Whilst I am quite enjoying the challenge, I am constantly trying to think of things that are worth doing for student
 SATs. Obviously not to say this is what you must do, but more to give them some ideas and to guide them into what is/isn’t achievable.
<u></u><u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Am wondering if anyone out there who had students use Python this year would be willing to share some ideas and issues they encountered.
