"Teaching Clojure Together" by Jordan Miller and Rafal Dittwald

Jordan Miller and Rafal Dittwald share pedagogical lessons, cognitive psychology, and instructional design strategies for teaching Clojure effectively.

Being an expert in Clojure doesn’t make one an expert in teaching Clojure. Whether you are trying to onboard new Clojurians at work, mentoring a family member, or wrangling some “free-range learners”, understanding the basics of pedagogy can go a long way at making you a better teacher. In this talk, two of the founders of Clojure Camp will share how they’ve been applying lessons from cognitive psychology, instructional design, inclusivity, and community organization to create effective learning experiences and foster a new generation of Clojurians.
