Genuine question. It has been a long time since I was a beginner programmer. Does all the cutesy "slow introduction" stuff appeal to novice programmers?
I am kind of impatient, so it seems a bit annoying to me.
If I were learning something technical that I am new to, say flying a plane, or biology I would prefer just to get stuck in. I would expect a pedagogical approach of course to easy me into it. But the cutesy stuff would feel like unnecessary slowing me down.
