Overview
This Python Turtle Graphics Tutorial course is designed to introduce students to the basics of graphics programming using the Turtle library. The course starts off with an introduction to the Turtle library and then dives into more advanced concepts such as shapes, fills, events and mouse drawing. Students will learn how to write a program to code shapes, utilise the built-in drawing libraries, detect key presses and create interactive environments for the user. By the end of the course, students should have a foundational understanding of Turtle and be able to apply their knowledge to create their own simple graphical programs.
Turtle is a Python feature like a drawing board, which lets us command a turtle to draw all over it! We can use functions like turtle.forward(…) and turtle.right(…) which can move the turtle around. Let’s create a basic animation where different little turtles race around a track created for them.
