Creating a Kotlin Course from Scratch
This talk tells the story of mobile development at BME-VIK-AUT, how I joined that story, and how we introduced Kotlin to the university curriculum. First as part of the Android software development course, then eventually creating a standalone course to teach it in depth.
It covers the all-live-demo approach used for lectures, the choices made to make the course fun to complete, the wonders that remote teaching introduced, and how the students have received the course.
