Python

list = ["the","dead","parrot","sketch"]
element = 0
for i in list:

If your code ran at all, it would be more believable, but since it has two syntax errors on the same line ...
Change it to this:

print (list [element].title())

And it'll actually do something. Not what your teacher wants, but something.

Then you can start to make it do the actual task.
title will not do what you want: it always returns a new string with the first character in uppercase, and all the others in lowercase. To increase the number of uppercase characters in a word, you will have to do that manually, there is no built in function for that.

Go back to your course notes for your last lesson, and see what they say - almost certainly you teacher covered this in that lesson!
