Abstract

We present an approach to emphasizing good programming practices and style throughout a curriculum. This approach draws on a clinic model used by English programs to reinforce the practice of clear, effective writing, and law schools to teach students legal writing. We present our model for a good programming practices clinic, and discuss our experiences in using it.
