Why should all (or even most) teachers in today's schools have a need to
learn to program? In the current state of the schools, I'd think it
would be far more productive for such teachers to learn to use
application software that would help them in teaching their subject
matter, and if we could say that even 50% of today's teaching staff
could do _that_ it would be an improvement over the current situation.
