I'm going to pass along some of the advice I got when I asked for help on these forums, maybe it will help you as much as it helped me

Study.. a lot. Experiment.. a lot!

Develop at least a non-working prototype yourself *then* ask questions. People will be more willing to answer specifics to help than doing the entirety of it for you.

That you are asking this is a really bad sign >_<

I'm not sure what class you are taking or what's involved, but before you start scripting, regardless of whether or not its something you want to pursue or are interested in learning, read up on the windows command line. Shouldn't take more than a couple hours to get the basics and is very much worth your time to learn.

That being said, I echo what nilbog said above.. study a lot, experiment a lot. It's really the only way to learn anything computer related. Asking for help is fine, but learning why you are having trouble and reaching your own solution is really the only way this stuff will stick with you.

It's 2014. Not to be a dick, but if you can't use Google, you probably shouldn't graduate in any program that may, at some point, require you to use a computer.
lesson learned, don't ever ask for help here
