Ask HN: Anyone did workshops for students on using agents/Claude Code?
I have two hours with them and I wonder what exercises I could give a group of 10 during class to make them understand and play around with Claude Code - to show them how it’s different to chat in practice.
The challenges I’m facing: - they have their own laptops, so each is a different OS with different settings. Ideas around this? - Ideas for tasks that would be doable and show how CC is better than the regular chat? - how to handle the subscriptions? - and coordinate work in general?
I’m thinking of setting up a fake company in a sandbox, with emails and so on, with a backstory - that they are a ceo, all IT got demolished by ransomware, the IT guy ran away to Caymans, and that they now need to figure out org chart, rebuild CRM and set up a website from scratch. But I wonder if this may be too heavy.
