Teaching C++

Hi CD,

This year I was my team's Only Student Programmer, and it looks like things are going to be that way next year too. I want to teach some other team members C++. WPILib is nice and makes development very easy, but I think it will pose a challenge for zero experience programmers who aren't ready to jump into OOP, indirection, memory management, etc. We will be using VEX in the preseason, and the EasyC API is even easier than WPILib, so I plan on starting with C. Before I think any further, do you have any advice on teaching programming? Teaching in general? The timeframe required to really know C?

Thanks.
