Toot

Written by froztbyte@awful.systems on 2024-12-17 at 20:22

depends on audience / person? and also maybe teacher

I’ve stepped people through essentials with e.g. idea “tell me how to make coffee” (as an intro to procedurals and dependency) all the way through many other types/shapes, through lego/blockly/whatever style teaching, and through outright “imagine this is a magic box and ${thing} comes out the other side” stepped iteration. sometimes you can jump straight to “hey so here’s a language that means specific things and here’s what that means” and go from there

so yeah I guess for my part I’d say I attune to the recipient. but for advice toward teacher I guess I’d attune that toward what I figure they’d be good at teaching

so… what’re you good at (teaching)?

I mean for myself. I’ve gotten as far as making a blackjack game in the past, but I couldn’t figure out what to do next.
