15-minute session: read for 3 minutes, trace for 3, experiment for 7, and complete the check for 2. Spend longer whenever you need.
A decision chooses which statements run. The policy here is “ready at 80 or higher.” Trace 85, 79, 80, and 81 before running each case. The comparison includes 80. A program that prints the right answer for 85 may still be wrong at the boundary. Add a separate check rejecting scores below 0 or above 100; rejection and needing practice mean different things.
Indentation groups statements. def defines a function and return supplies its result. A dictionary maps keys to values. The isolated Python 3 lab has the standard library; external packages are not installed by student code.
score = 85
if score >= 80:
print("Ready")
else:
print("Practice")
Expected result: Ready
Keep three notes: your prediction, the actual result, and why they match or differ. The completion check grades understanding; the practice task builds skill.
