Interesting idea. I'm not sure I know enough about circuses to know how to manage one, unless you consider teaching to be similar to managing a circus. :)

I do indeed!

Clowns, animals, sex, conflict, accidents, change... and fun!

For 8 years I was a travelling instructor for a Unix SQL database vendor. I taught hundreds of classes to thousands of students, in some pretty bizarre places (including a huge cigarette factory in Macon, GA, where a BENEFIT of working for the company was TWO cartons of cigs per week!) I got up-close-and-personal tours of auto manufacturing, meat packing, medical products distribution, a great range.

The model that Informix used was an athletic equipment dealer. Adequate but not fun.

This whole suggestion is meant mainly to indicate the universality and flexibility of the OOP approach. You can add technical sophistication in any way you like.

Don't see yourself short. You already know a lot more than you think, especially since you are a teacher!
