The proposal for this panel has already been accepted by the program committee. I am looking for a wide variety of panelists who have taught these classes in Ada (and other languages as well, to supply a better perspective). I'm especially interested in getting at least one panelist who believes Ada should not be taught in these courses. The panel will run for 1.5 hours, sometime on Wednesday October 23rd (that's the "Education Day"). If you are going to be at the conference and would like to be a panelist, please send me e-mail. Include some backround on the course(s) you teach, your experience with thses course, and other languages you have taught in these courses. After I select the panelists (because I know there will be a deluge of volunteers :), I'll e-mail more specific information on how I expect to run the panel.
