Just-in-time : better teaching in Hong kong

I report on my experiences with Just-in-Time Teaching (JiTT) in the course COMP272 (Theory of Computing) at the Hong Kong University of Science and Technology. The course was given in Spring 2002 and Spring 2003 as a reading course within the JiTT framework. My experiences are very positive. Students were very happy with the course, and they seemed to learn more than in a traditional course. The only negative point we can report is the unusual high workload for the instructor.
