Re: learnign programing

I think when teaching people to program get them testing on a robot quickly. Personally I love competing in TopCoder and practicing for it but I'm not sure if students will be that interested in TopCoder problems as they usually are pointless problems. What we do is start with some basic simple problems that involve the robot. For example make two joy stick drive and then one joy stick drive. Start very simple so they students can easily get something done then expand from there. I haven't tried easyC (it crashed first few times I tried) but if that works go for it.
