[Edu-sig] A python teaching success

[james at dis-dot-dat.net]

Hi all.

   This last academic year, we used Python for the first time in our
   introductory programming modules.

   This is in place of Java (horrible first language, IMNSHO).

   It went VERY well.  We've just had our external examiner's report
   and I got so excited, I blogged it and then ran here to yell about
   it.
