Actually Brown teaches Intro to Programming Languages using Pyret. http://cs.brown.edu/courses/cs173/2013/software.html


By looks of the course number, this is a third or fourth year elective for undergrads. It seems that what is being taught here is the design and engineering of programming languages, not programming itself.


That's correct - 173 is definitely not an intro course. But, we also are teaching an intro course with it:

They also teach the Accelerated Intro to Computer Science (the first cs course some students take) using Pyret. http://cs.brown.edu/courses/cs019/2013/
