Teaching
A benefit of teaching the same class each semester is the ability to try new ideas and see if they work or not. Of course the students are not the same from semester to semester, but over a few semesters it should be clear if an idea is working out or not.
I think that beginning programmers can benefit from repetition as well as from lots of real coding practice. If a programmer can't write a call to a function, or a function header, they need to learn how to do that in the language they are using. There is no substitute for that knowledge.
I have attached some of the materials I created for my classes. Enjoy!
