Program Arcade Games Pygame/Pygame Book by Dr. Paul Craven
Dr. Paul Craven has written a nice book and site for college students learning to program. He focuses on Python and Pygame.
It looks like a great curriculum for adults.
It's quite different from my curriculum which is targeted at children between 9 and 16. The upper end of my curriculum is a moving target as my son gets older.
Since Dr. Craven is teaching computer science at Simpson College, he has a great pool of students ages 18 to 22 to experiment with and refine his curriculum. It looks like a great class for college students.
His lessons on classes and sprites look like they're a nice next steps for more advanced children that have completed my curriculum. I've been teaching my son about modules and libraries. I've taken a different approach from Dr. Craven, but his approach seems fine for adults and possibly some children.
