Re: Java Presentations

Thanks!

In regards to length, we don't have too many meetings during pre-season, so I need to cram all of Java into about 18-20 afternoons. I'm hoping that the occasional joke and making sure that they are actually doing stuff keeps them from getting bored.

I plan on doing that for most of the presentations. I'm just not sure what to put before even teaching booleans/if statements.

I made a overview of what all the presentations will be like before I started: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets...it?usp=sharing. Definitely still a WIP. Each presentation takes a while, but that might have more to do with having almost no free time than the presentation itself. I plan on releasing them all when I'm done. Maybe I can post them here as they are made.
