QuestionSetting up a C# Programming Club/Study Class Pin

I'm basically just asking about how to go about this generally. I need to give you some background to this, so here goes...

At uni, I have inundated with requests from students in a 16-18yrs level class for help with programming. This course is a UK university initiative to help people who want to return to education and go on to a degree, there's a even a great-grandma in one of my classes! (I'm a returning mature student myself). It turns out that the tutor is basically reading from a book, and has never programmed before, blatantly admitting this to his subjects.

Quite a few people want to finish this year of their leg-up course to go on to the actual degree, into programming. Some have some base in programming, but only wysiwyg game making. They've all discovered I know more than a fair bit about programming. So I've decided to look at creating a Programming Club that is registered with the Student Union, with the aim of helping everyone (including me, I do not claim to know everything!).

With the SU's support, I can book one of the advanced rooms in the IT block (oooh, two monitors per computer, the computers are really gooood!). I can get other support too.

I know I have to keep things low key as to it's real aim (ie. actually teach these people the fundamentals of programming).

This is all just about me having validation from other programmers out there, to boost my confidence that I can actually do this.

I'm just wondering if I should go the group session route, where everyone helps each other, or make it a little bit more formal for part of the time, actually showing people how to program, ie. notation, naming, other conventions, showing code optimisation (this is bad, this is good stuff etc). I've even got an old program I made, that is quite long, and actually uses a lot of program examples that I could use as a project for people to learn from, as it has many examples of how to do things right and how NOT to do things!

Do you have any suggestions?
