https://gowers.wordpress.com/2007/10/19/my-favourite-pedagogical-principle-examples-first
Laquo; A paper on the ArXiV. My favourite pedagogical principle: examples first! If this too seems pretty obvious, I invite you to consider how common it is to do the opposite. Why should it be better to do it that way round? By now the alert reader will have noticed that I have not practised what I have preached. So let’s forget all about the discussion so far and start again, this time doing things properly. My favourite pedagogical principle: examples first! If we interpret and. Are fields. (If on...

Tuesday, 28 October 2008. The least favourite PhD student. He seemed oddly surprised by this. So I asked him how his meeting had gone. Oh well, we went to lunch together and had a nice talk.".
