TM was first deployed in second course in the sequence Advanced Programming
- Academic years 1998--2001
- Teaching Machine used separately from regular notes
- Use of the Teaching Machine thus required a break away from the flow of the lecture
- Students had notes on paper and TM on CD
- Students somewhat positive.
- Academic year 2002
- Creation of WebWriter++ allowed notes and Teaching Machine examples to be integrated together (as in this talk)
- However notes were converted on-the-fly over the course of the term
- Students had HTML notes on-line
- Students more positive
- Academic years 2003 and 2004
- Greatly improved language coverage allowed most examples to be run in the Teaching Machine
- HTML notes were ready before the term and available to students on CD
- Students very positive about use of The Teaching Machine
