I gave a class on using Processing to create simple graphics. Also quickly “covered” using the OpenCV addon to detect faces. Notes, slides, etc are available here.

It was the first time I’ve taught a class in quite a while. I got a fairly positive response (from my friends, so they have to be nice to me!). I think I did a good job setting up mini-goals that took 20-30 minutes to accomplish. The idea was to give everyone little victories quickly so they’d be motivated to stick around and conquer more.
