I strongly believe that teaching is ART. Therefore, my first advice is to be a first-class artist on your stage (the classroom). It means, try to be different from others teachers in your environment, and engage your students to actively participate in lecture. Use a constructivist approach rather than objectivist in teaching
I am currently working in two-three separate directions. The first is “Different Roles of Agents in Personalized Programming Learning Environment”, and the second is “Pedagogical Patterns for Learning Programming by Mistakes”. We try to investigate various techniques to help learners to improve learning effects using e-learning systems. We propose an e-learning architecture with a recommendation module consisting of several different kinds of pedagogical agents that actively participate in learning processes, provoking learners and motivating them to learn more effectively. For the purpose of our research, we distinguish two groups of agents. The first group consists of pedagogical agents with diverse functionalities and potential. The second group includes harvesting agents employed in educational environments with the main goal of collecting different learning resources. Initial ideas are how to incorporate different kinds of agents: Harvesting, Provoking, and Zestful, etc. Both Zestful and Provoking agents have the same goal – to increase the learner’s quality of learning - but approach to this task differently. The Zestful agent offers hints that, in the usual methodology of teaching programming languages, represent useful directions for problem solving as propositions of appropriate solutions to the given problem. The Provoking agent, on the other hand, tries to steer the process of learning and problem solving in a bad direction by offering wrong parts of the code. That is, it offers false hints and suggests bad solutions to the given problem. The basic rationale behind this approach is to encourage learners not to follow the tutor’s instructions blindly, but rather to employ critical thinking and, in the end, they them-selves decide on the proper solution to the problem.
In addition, you could provide some home works for the students. For example, you finished classes about word processing in some course for computing literacy. After some time, give to the students your CV generating by Research Gate (for example), and ask them “How many times does my name appear in that document?”
