In the first two sections of this set of lectures, I  summarize  the arguments, based on low-energy phenomenology, supporting  walking technicolor as a realistic realization of  this idea. This pedagogical introduction to walking technicolor, and more generally to the physics of extensions of the standard model, makes extensive use of effective field theory arguments, symmetries and counting rules.
