So the homework should always be something similar, but still something which is a little newer, perhaps with a hint or two to guide us along, like for instance telling us that a slash represent divide and an asterisk multiply.
I know this might get harder to do later on but at the start whilst we are still getting used to the syntax and the commands it's very important.
Another basic example is the Hello World program, instead of just telling us to create another program exactly like that what we also need to is make it say an additional line, or perhaps close after a certain time period (and then you could tell us the command for a delayed close as a hint).
Other than that though I thought your lessons were brilliant, especially the way you used colours and screenshots to make everything simpler (sure books also have those...but usually in black and white...which does make things a little harder to see).
