Hi, folks!
I’m testing waters for a D course at one University for first
time it’ll be an optional thing. It’s still discussed but may
very well become a reality.
Before you ask - no, I’m not lecturing and in fact, I didn’t
suggest D in the first place! Academics are finally seeing
light in the gloom of 1 year OOP in C++ course having
underwhelming results.
Now to the point, I remeber Chuck Allison (pardon if I
misspelled) doing D lectures at Utah Valley University, here:

There is also Ali’s book. But anything else easily adoptable as
course material?

Honestly I'd recommend TDPL. It's got a lot of good real-world
examples, including some OOP ones, but more importantly examples
that demonstrate concurrent programming, generic programming,
procedural, and I think a few functional examples as well.
Basically, it covers a very broad area in one book while also
teaching you D.
