    Abstract. The present paper surveys recent developments in algorith-mic teaching. First, the traditional teaching dimension model is recalled. Starting from the observation that the teaching dimension model some-times leads to counterintuitive results, recently developed approaches are presented. Here, main emphasis is put on the following aspects derived from human teaching/learning behavior: the order in which examples are presented should matter; teaching should become harder when the memory size of the learners decreases; teaching should become easier if the learners provide feedback; and it should be possible to teach infinite concepts and/or finite and infinite concept classes. Recent developments in the algorithmic teaching achieving (some) of these aspects are presented and compared.
