[Haskell-cafe] Suggestions for "Advanced" Topics for Haskell-based Class

[Joe Hillenbrand]

I _personally_ don't like LYAH, but I highly recommend Parallel and Concurrent
Programming in Haskell[1] especially the second half. It's *required* reading
for real world Haskelling.

concurrent, distributed, reactive, or metaprogramming (domain-specific
languages, Template Haskell, etc.).

tutorial or teaching resources to use?  Although I have taught fundamental
Haskell FP topics for many years, I have not delved into any of these
"advanced" topics.
