comments | The course, which has been taught by half-a-dozen different lecturers, is the first lecture course taught to incoming students. The vast majority of students enjoy it and find the material useful in studying other topics in subsequent terms and years. A number of students use Haskell in their third-year projects. Currently there is not an advanced functional programming course, but one is planned for the near future |

comments | In this course, we teach an introduction to programming in three steps: formal specifications, functional programming and imperative programming. In the first step, students learn to unambiguously describe a problem before trying to solve it. In the second one, they program simple solutions to specified problems using simple recursive function defintions in Haskell. In the third step, they learn how to solve roughly the same problems using control-flow structures present in imperative languages, such as loops. |

comments | Haskell is taught as a "minor" language alongside Java. It is difficult to justify anything else, given the lack of commercial interest. It is motivated as an introduction to declarative ideas that occur in many specialist languages that come later (HTML, SQL, Prolog, Python, ...), as a source of ideas in other languages (e.g. generics in Java) and as a language for throwaway prototyping. |

comments | The course is now taught by Dan Chalmers at Sussex who may or may not fill in this form himself. Note also that the course is cumpulsory for Cs students but not for Math with Cs or Cs with AI students. Note also that this course will be discontinued in 2007 and replaced by a course "(non-imperative) Program Paradigms" where Functional and Logic Programming (and may be others?) will be taught. (Note also that I voted against that decision :-). |

comments | This survey is a great idea. Thanks. Just a few comments: In general, students appreciate the clarity and conciseness of FP. I think, a substantial percentage of the students on really like it. But, they do not take it very seriously as a "real world" programming language. They rather tend to consider it a nice academic exercise. How can one convince students of the practical usefulness of FP in a course of 20 x 50 minutes lectures? I think it is not enough to praise the successes of FP. The students need to see that they can do interesting things with FP by themselves. The question is: which things? I tried graphics (Hudak, Lueth) and functional parsers (Hutton, Meijer), but my impression was that students are mostly interested in things which Simon Peyton Jones addressed in his paper "Tackling the Awkward Squad: monadic input/output, concurrency,exceptions, and foreign-language calls". I think, for the purpose of teaching FP, we are in dire need of a book on FP that not only presents the purely functional aspects, but also comprehensively covers issues discussed in that paper. In Swansea, we are teaching FP in the second (compulsory) and third (optional) year. I think it's perfectly okay to teach the students another (mainstream) language in the first year, against which they can later measure the benefits of FP. |

comments | We teach Functional Programming to expose students to a new style of programming. The module lasted for one semester for some time, and the students typically finished the project with a parser, or a simple compiler. In 2005 the module was contracted to a half semester, to make way for other core material. We do little more than the basics of the language, without much project style work. |

comments | For historical reasons, the course is called "Object Oriented Programming" and roadmap is 1. Haskell, 2. Java (1.5) (mainly the collections framework) 3. C++ (STL). The recurring topics are a) types, b) generic types, c) interfaces and inheritance. My main "internal" observation (besides the usual one that concepts can be expressed very concisely and precisely in Haskell and students usually manage to get this) is that the Haskell libraries could learn a lot from the corresponding designs in Java (which in turn were built on C++ STL of course). Next time I'll probably drop the C++ part since it's just too much syntax hassle and late typechecks and the interface concept is missing and I don't see what could be learned from that. |

comments | Once students learn effective programming with higher-order functions, learn a bit of the theory of the lambda calculus,and gain practice programming recursively in Scheme, Haskell and ML/OCaml, they often wonder why more people are not aware of this style of programming. That usually leads to interesting classroom and after-hours discussions on this topic. |

comments | The first half of the course uses Reynolds' "Theories of Programming Languages", and covers the basics of syntax and semantics, then the imperative and functional paradigms followed by the ISWIM-like and Algol-like combined paradigms. Haskell is used in the second half to illustrate the concepts. Both assignments are in Haskell. This is the students' only exposure in our degree to a language that isn't java/c/php, although some prolog is taught in the AI course. |

comments | I don't have a home page for the course up at the moment: I am revising it from the last time it was taught (which was also the first, in Spring 2004). I "get" to teach Haskell in one course per year, under two course titles which alternate years. The other course is a basic FP course; the "Language, Logic and Computation" is an updated CS theory course, biased toward PL theory, which adds semantics and logic to the usual "uninterpreted" formal language topics. It is mainly organized along the lines of increasing structural complexity of language (a la traditional CS theory), but focuses more on semantic issues and on illustrating aspects of language and meta-linguistic technology with small example languages. Haskell is used as the primary implemented meta-language (various math & logic notations, e.g., CFGs and semantic equations, are the non-implemented meta-languages). |

comments | This course is actually one track of a much broader course (CS 11), which teaches a number of programming languages. Students learn whichever one they want (maximum one per term) and can repeat the course to learn more languages. The enrollment typically includes students from every year (freshmen to seniors, and graduate students). The Haskell track was added due to repeated student requests, and now seems to be well established (though it's still under active development and has many rough edges). The students who take the Haskell track are invariably among the best computer science students I have taught at Caltech, and most of them seem to like the language a lot. Usually there are only about 5 students who take the Haskell track each term. I will be extending the track in the near future to cover various topics that interest me (e.g. parser combinators), and may eventually teach an advanced Haskell track. |

comments | Although the students are supposed to know Haskell from the second year, many of them have forgotten it and others didn't have our second year course, and have never seen functional programming before. However, knowledge of Haskell isn't necessary, and may even be a drawback: I'm using Haskell as a host for a domain-specific hardware description language, and don't want the students to write arbitrary Haskell code that doesn't correspond to a circuit. A prototype version of the software uses Template Haskell to check that the code is actually valid in the domain-specific language, not just in Haskell. |

comments | When I took over the course in 2002, it was very Haskell-oriented. To open the course to students without Haskell background, I have developed it to be independent of programming language. I also think it is good to present concepts in abstraction from implementation language. Haskell's strength in compiler construction is algebraic datatypes and pattern matching. The maintenance of state in code genetation is conceptually imperative, but the state monad is good enough to handle this in a galant way. The BNF converter tool has evolved in this course. It helps programmers in different languages by generating the boilerplate code needed for algebraic datatypes and pattern matching. BNFC is written in Haskell. |

comments | This course is on the semantics of non-procedural programming languages, with functional and logical languages currently being the prime examples. The course is aimed at students of Business Informatics and Applied Computer Science without extensive programming background. We do not teach large-scale functional programming but use Haskell to give students some hands-on functional experience. The main part of the course is on structural operational semantics (SOS) and type systems. We teach Prolog for implementing the SOS semantics of a miniature functional language developed during the course. Our experiences are very good indeed. We believe this is partly because our students are not already hooked too much on Java-like OO programming. The calculator-style read-eval-print interpreter of Hugs we find very helpful in teaching Haskell. |

comments | I do not assume that students are fluent in Haskell or even know the language. The language Haskell is mostly used as a convenient medium for presenting techniques in compiler construction (rather than using a mathematical, non-executable notation). Using Haskell works mostly well (currying seems to be the highest hurdle). |

comments | Our course is attended by Maths students only though most of them have taken some courses in Computer Science. Many of the examples center around "Computational Matroid Theory" on which one of the teachers has written a book (to be published next year). Other programming examples come from Exact Real Number Computation exploiting the lazy lists provided by Haskell. We also give some "theoretical" background abou lambda calculus, very basic domain theory and reasoning principles for recursively defined functions. |

comments | I have used Gofer or Hugs since 1993. (Two previous offerings of the course used RUFL--Rhodes University Functional Language.) The purpose of the course is to introduce students to a considerably different approach to programming from the imperative/OO approach they see mostly. It also allows discussion of a sophisticated type system, program proofs, and sometimes program derivation (synthesis) techniques. I have been quite pleased with the result. Even though I am not a FL researcher, I enjoy teaching the course more than most of my other courses and students also seem to like the course, despite its seeming lack of practicality. |

comments | Students learned how to view functional programming as a well-specified core language that can be extended through a variety of syntactic and semantic means to produce a domain specific language. Haskell was used by some of the students as the core of their DSL, other students used Scheme (GNU Guile). |
