I don't think you'd have as much luck with first year uni students in a three hour segment.
Great work and I love the extension ideas (including USB drives!)
- pterodactyl 17y agoI had similar success teaching Shoes to fourth & fifth graders in a series of 3 1-hour lessons. I liked Sarah Mei's lesson even better, but for another datapoint, here's my report: http://teachingkids.railsbridge.org/2009/07/20/fifth-grade-shoes.html http://teachingkids.railsbridge.org/2009/07/20/fifth-grade-s...
