Decision to run/cancel course:  Tuesday, March 24, 2026

Course Information will be distributed on Tuesday, March 24, 2026 in advance of and in preparation for the first live workshop session.  A live orientation session will be held on Thursday, March 26, 2026

Attendees will have access to the recorded session and exercises for two months (until June 23, 2026) after the
last live session ends!

This is a hands-on course combining pre-recorded lectures with live Q&A and workshop sessions in the popular and powerful open-source Python programming language.

Pre-Recorded Videos:  The course format has been updated to release pre-recorded video lectures that students can watch on their own schedule, and an unlimited number of times, prior to live Q&A workshop sessions on Zoom with the instructor. The videos will also be available to the students for viewing for up to two months after the conclusion of the course.

Overview: Dan provides simple, straight-forward navigation through the multiple configurations and options, providing a best-practices approach for quickly getting up to speed using Python for modelling and analysis for applications in signal processing and digital design verification. Students will be using the Anaconda distribution, which combines Python with the most popular data science applications, and Jupyter Notebooks for a rich, interactive experience.

The course begins with basic Python data structures and constructs, including key “Pythonic” concepts, followed by an overview and use of popular packages for scientific computing enabling rapid prototyping for system design.

During the course students will create example designs including a sigma delta converter and direct digital synthesizer both in floating point and fixed point. This will include considerations for cycle and bit accurate models useful for digital design verification (FPGA/ASIC), while bringing forward the signal processing tools for frequency and time domain analysis.

Jupyter Notebooks: This course makes extensive use of Jupyter Notebooks which combines running Python code with interactive plots and graphics for a rich user experience. Jupyter Notebooks is an open-source web-based application (that can be run locally) that allows users to create and share visually appealing documents containing code, graphics, visualizations and interactive plots. Students will be able to interact with the notebook contents and use “take-it-with-you” results for future applications in signal processing.

Target Audience: This course is targeted toward users with little to no prior experience in Python, however familiarity with other modern programming languages and an exposure to object-oriented constructs is very helpful. Students should be comfortable with basic signal processing concepts in the frequency and time domain. Familiarity with Matlab or Octave is not required, but the equivalent operations in Python using the NumPy package will be provided for those students that do currently use Matlab and/or Octave for signal processing applications.

Benefits of Attending / Goals of Course: Attendees will gain an overall appreciation of using Python and quickly get up to speed in best practice use of Python.

All set-up information for the installation of all tools will be provided before the start of class.

HERE is the TMSA Announcement:

Invitation to TMSA’s First High School STEAM Night!
 
Good afternoon, Parents and Guardians and ENCS Members:

I hope this message finds you well.

We are thrilled to share that the TMSA FRC Robotics Team will be hosting our first-ever High School STEAM Night on Wednesday, November 19, from 4:00–6:00 PM in the TMSA Artium! This special event will bring together all our committed STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts, and Mathematics) clubs to celebrate innovation, creativity, and collaboration within our school community.

Event Highlights

  • Who: All TMSA STEAM-related clubs and programs
  • What: Interactive displays, demonstrations, and student-led projects
  • Where: TMSA Artium
  • When: Wednesday, November 19 | 4:00–6:00 PM
  • Cost: Free admission

Our goal is to showcase the incredible work our students are doing while inspiring the next generation of innovators. To make this event even more impactful, we would love to invite especially parents and guardians working in STEAM-related careers to join us! 

ALL are welcome, though.

This is a wonderful opportunity to showcase students’ work, build community connections, and celebrate the importance of STEAM education.

The FRC Robotics Team will serve as event coordinators along with the committed STEAM clubs, along with my engineering classes, who will be contributing exciting hands-on exhibits. STEAM NIGHT flyer and announcements will also be shared throughout the school and local community.

We’d love to have you be part of this exciting event! Thank you for your continued support in helping us make STEAM Night a success.

Warm regards,

STEM Explorer Fest 2026
STEM Explorer Fest 2026 150 150 ieeeeduweek

Hello!

It’s time for STEM Fest 2026! 

We are excited to announce that registrations are now open for our 2026 STEM Explorer Festival, which will take place on Saturday, 1/17/26 from 10:00AM to 2:00PM at Largo Central Park. This event allows children and parents in our Pinellas County community to learn more about STEM skills used in our local organizations and businesses. It is also an opportunity to learn about employment opportunities in our area and what students need to do to work in STEM fields.

Thank you for supporting this event in the past! We hope you can share your expertise again this year. As a reminder, we are looking for interactive exhibits that will allow children of all ages to explore authentic STEM skills and learn about STEM job opportunities in Florida.

Here is the sign-up link: https://forms.office.com/r/qmd1VhGuQM

Feel free to share this event with others who may be interested. A sharable Save the Date card with the application QR code is also attached to this email.

Note: If you are planning to bring a vehicle, there is a separate application for the Touch a Truck section. https://largo.rja.revize.com/forms/1873

Thank you for your continued support of Pinellas County students! We look forward to seeing you at STEM Explorer Fest 2026.
