I am designing a beginning programming course.

The structure is to be as follows:
       One day a week, a lecture on a topic (using psuedo code).
	    One this day, all students would attend.
       The second day of the week, the class would be broken into different
	    languages where syntax would be taught.
       The third day would be a lab day where they would learn on the 
	    computer.

I am looking for a list of topics to cover in the first day.
I am also looking for text books if any have been developed for this.
Any recommendations would be very helpful.


By the way, this is my first posting to the net, so I hope everything
is right.

Thanks in advance
