[Haskell] Another First course in Haskell

[Piyush P Kurur]

Hi,

	I am planing a haskell based functional programming course.
It is supposed to be a first course and I intend to show how
real world applications can be built quite easily in haskell.


Goals:

1) Cover all the basics like recursion, interesting data structures
like zippers, monads

2) Haskell programming environment: by this I mean things like 
ghci, hadock, cabal


The students after the course should seriously consider Haskell
as a programming language for implementing their final year projects.
In this aspect if one can convince that things like web-programming
cgi scripting, networking, compiler projects, which are the favorits
for programming projects, are better done in Haskell than
in traditional languages like C and Java that would be a success.


The course will be taken by mostly Computer Science undergrads.


Any feed back is really welcome. I have about 2-3 months to plan
the course.

Regards
