Hacker News Reader

Have you gone through SIGCSE related materials? Checked out the CS Ed Researcher's Facebook group? Maybe looked into the CS Ed Stack Exchange? There's a whole, deep world of CS Ed pedagogy and practice that can probably dramatically improve your teaching.

Not to insult Hacker News, but I think you can get A LOT more from the expert teacher community than the expert software engineering community.

I once attended a CS education seminar. Part of the required reading was 'How Learning Works: Seven Research-Based Principles for Smart Teaching', Ambrose, et al. Out of the flood of materials acbart refers to, I'd suggest it as a starting point and a useful addition to the toolkit.

I figured there were people here for whom the pain was fresh :)

Thanks for the pointers, I will check out those resources.
