Especially if it crosses into the confrontational. Once it becomes confrontational the opportunity for either participant to learn is lost in playing defense.
The reason I ask this is my assistant principle is asking me the same thing. For next year we can either have the teacher we have now, or a math/physics teacher who understands come of the concepts of Computer Science to help guide, but not teach. This new teacher is willing to make the class more student led, as most of the kids going into the class know a lot about the subject, they would just need a teacher to guide them through the class, and he seems to be the guy to do this. Do you think this could work?
