[Texas] PyTexas 2010 Retrospective: Teach-In

[cody at telnet.org]

tutor perspective:

The teach-in appeared to work well enough.  People were trickling in over 
the entire two hours, so some announcements on the half hour might have 
lowered some of the confusion.

Overall, I couldn't tell how many people were really benefitting in large 
room, but there were lots of tutors paired up with students.  The small 
room (205?) seemed to have people making good progress with self paced 
learning and occasional help from tutors.  It might help to subdivide by 
experience levels or other relevant categories a little earlier next time.

As a tutor, I enjoyed the time a little more than expected.  It was also a 
nice chance to meet some people before the keynote and regular sessions 
started.

thanks,
c
