This is a one-hour virtual jumpstart workshop with limited seating for K12 teachers or K12 IT staff only. Each participant will set-up a Python “stack” on their personal computer. We will include the ArcGIS API for Python in your stack, run pre-built programs, and write two simple programs: one that creates a map and one that performs an administrative function in ArcGIS Online.
This is a beginner’s (non-programmer’s) workshop; however, it is best if you have programmed in any language prior to taking the workshop. While the coding will be straightforward, our ability to troubleshoot installation problems will be limited.
Before you register:
- Make sure that you have a Windows or Macintosh computer with administrative privileges, so that you can install software.
- Make sure you have a publisher level account in an ArcGIS Online organization.
Before the workshop:
- Know how to launch your computer’s command prompt. On Mac, this is Terminal. On a Windows computer, this is Command Prompt (search for “cmd.exe” in Windows 10).
- Have your AGO Publisher username/password at the ready for the workshop.
Workshop date and time: TBD
Web address: Received via email.
To register: If you would like to be put on a waiting list or receive news about any related "python for educators" workshops in the future, please email: tbaker@esri.com.
