+        <h3>Programming in Python</h3>
+        <p>Oct 1 - Dec 10, 2013</p>
+        <p>This course provides an introduction to the Python language.
+        Explore its most important libraries and practice recommended
+        programming styles and idioms. Learn through demonstration how the
+        various language features can be used together to best achieve
+        Pythonic style. This course it is not intended for absolute beginners
+        in programming, but includes a self-contained review of elementary
+        features.</p>
+

+
+        <ul>
+          <li>Variables, Expressions and Statements</li>
+          <li>Data Structures: Lists, Dictionaries, Tuples</li>
+          <li>Functions and Arguments</li>
+          <li>Conditionals and Recursion</li>
+          <li>Strings and Regular Expressions</li>
+          <li>Object Oriented Development: Classes, Inheritance</li>

+        <p>This course emphasizes network-based programming and Web
+        applications, how they work and how to program them in Python. Explore
+        the underlying principles and their expression in the Python
+        libraries. Learn contrasting approaches in creating applications:
+        programming with the low-level libraries versus using highly
+        integrated frameworks.</p>
+
+        <h4>Topics include:</h4>
+
+        <ul>
+          <li>Foundational Technologies: sockets and the TCP/IP stack</li>
