I recently gave a talk, titled “Eight tips for teaching programming to novices“, which presented my recommendations of programming teaching practices I posted here some time ago.

In this talk, I did not only present and explain the tips themselves, but I presented concrete examples of what these tips mean, and how you could enact them with actual programming projects or assignments.

Currently, I do not have a recording of the talk, just the slides, which you can find here.

The slides by themselves do not really show how to put things into practice. If you are interested in this talk for a group of teachers somewhere, contact me and I’d be happy to present the talk again elsewhere.
