Key Points
We give some advice about delivering content, but teachers are empowered to work with their class in their own way.
- No lectures - Nobody talks for more than 10 minutes
- Don't teach alone - Share the session teaching amongst volunteers
- Cold call - Choose people by name to answer questions (and mix it up!)
- Live code - Share your screen and try things out
- Everybody writes - Have the trainees code along with you - or have them tell you what to do next
- Normalise googling - Say 'I don't know; let's find out' often - even if you do know
- Exercises over lectures - Give people plenty of practice coding in public
- Make mistakes - And fix them in public
