@book{1999Krantz,
title={How to Teach Mathematics},
author={Steven G. Krantz},
publisher={American Mathematical Society},
edition=2,
year=1999,
annote={R. L. Moore would hand out a single sheet with definitions, axioms and theorems, and challenge the students to prove the theorems on the board. Then,``Moore would rip the person apart. And that set the tone for the class.'' ``Moore did not allow his students to read books or papers.'' ``They were not allowed to read, and they were not allowed to collaborate outside of class. Moore was merciless in weeding out those students who did not cooperate or did not fit.'' }}

course in formal language theory and the theory of computation is
notoriously difficult. ``;
``student’s perception of the
relevance of the required mathematical material to computer science
as they have studied the discipline'';
``Students fail to appreciate the
relevance of the material due to its theoretical nature'';
`` the approach has been and remains
controversial, it nevertheless has proven effective in addressing the
problem of student engagement.'';
