Add tracing to "Self-study and debugging".

good call, I can't believe I missed that. I'll throw in a section about raycasts and area searches somewhere toward the end too.

official topic here, please tell me if you see some kind of glaring defect.

Cool, but like what someone and packer said, upload it somewhere besides youtube so people who can't make it at 8PM  can still watch it.

I'd go for a class once or twice, also I think you should have seperate people teaching seperate things not you just teaching everything. It would make it more efficient that way.

I encourage volunteers to meet up with people who don't want to work where the class is right now and pair up as is convenient for them, however a set curriculum by me is the only easy way to make sure no one skipped something because they assumed it fell under another person's jurisdiction. There could also be a lot of unforseen bottlenecks where one person is stuck with everyone ANYWAY while others have nothing to do until that topic is understood by the student. Students also benefit from a consistent learning structure over a longer period of time so that they can "get the hang of it" and then learn in an optimal way given the environment and their own personal style.

tl;dr version: the "semester class by a single teacher" format exists for a reason.

I vote 100% yes, especially with the group/one on one pairing idea.

8:00PM Pacific is 11:00PM Eastern.
