South Africa.  How widely adopted it will be remains to be seen.

I think you've had a lot of influence over the years, but in ways
we'll never be able to precisely measure, so what can I say about it.

Anyway, I too am looking more and more at sharing Python with fully

K12 lesson planning around this resource without more adult
understanding.

Look for me on the teacher training circuit.
