I love teaching students the areas we currently understand, and paving the way for them to go away, pick up those research pieces and dig deeper into the lesser-known aspects of the OS and applications. I am not one to be constrained by the live demo curse and love to break out into tools to show how things work in real life. I have always learned much more by doing than watching, and this is very much my teaching style too.
