An entirely practical point: I taught such a course one semester, with the COMAP book which is called "For All Practical Purposes." They supplied a set of videotapes, which I ignored. The course I gave was unpleasant for most concerned, certainly for me. In another semester I substituted a single day for a colleague who was using the videotapes. It was wonderful. I showed the video, they got something out of it, I explained a tiny bit. The real surprize to me was just how well the video was done. By now they must have DVD's, online stuff, etc. As that was in the 1990's, I assume that there are more recent incarnations of such course materials.
