# Using Org-mode to teach programming

In this presentation I will explain how to use org-mode effectively to
prepare teaching materials, and how to present them.
For the last 5 years I have been using org-mode to teach programming
in different languages: C++, SQL, Ruby, Python, SML
and Scheme. Org-mode has three key advantages:
1. it supports most programming languages with a common interface,
2. it is an interactive medium for delivering teaching materials; and
3. it is an always-up-to-date format that does not need to be exported in order to be published.
I explain how I use org-mode in my courses and how I combine org-mode
notes other tools such as github org-mode to get
always up-to-date teaching materials that one can use for both
teaching and studying (see
<https://github.com/dmgerman/csc116ModernCplusplus/blob/master/lectures/l-01-1-intro/01_1_intro.org>
for an example).
Finally, I will discuss some important aspects to consider when using
org-mode for this purpose.
