In this BMFH project, a digital tutorial and examples will be created to explain the most important elements of a modern programming language to BM pupils and students at the UAS. An online version of Python, for example, is planned as a means of doing this. For consolidation, BM tasks from the fields of chemistry and physics are calculated with Python.
Initial situation: Computer science is not a compulsory subject at the vocational baccalaureate BM. However, chemistry and physics are standardised as part of the curriculum for the technical BM in Switzerland
Objective: To link the skills in chemistry and physics that are required anyway with a programming language frequently used at universities of applied sciences.
The project is based on three pillars:
- Tutorial explaining the most important basic elements of the Python programming language
- Solution of sample tasks in chemistry for BM exam preparation with Python
- Solution of sample tasks in physics for BM exam preparation with Python
