Prolog's Eternal September (2017)

a year ago

The author acknowledges violating Stack Overflow rules when answering Prolog questions, realizing it's counterproductive.
There's a high volume of pre-beginner Prolog questions on Stack Overflow, often from students with unclear assignments and no intention to learn deeply.
The root issue is that Prolog is taught by professors who may not understand it, leading to poor student experiences.
The author wishes for a world where Prolog is taught effectively or at least introduced constructively.
Proposed solutions include a solution database with annotations for all levels of questions and slide decks for professors to teach Prolog without deep knowledge.
The author invites ideas and collaboration via email to address these challenges.
