Lessons need more activities that promote scaffolded, constructivist knowledge building that includes conceptual understanding (Ex. consciously building a model for program execution). To achieve this add a separate new section "Activities" (?) with a set of such exercises that can be given to the students individually or in groups. Mentors can then choose from these activities while teaching. At the top of each page put the lesson that the activity connects to, the skill level, number of minutes in a lesson, and the learning objectives. Maybe teaching notes at the bottom, or in another page.

(See Grover chapter 14: Naive Conceptions of Novice Programmers p. 150-153. Also Chapter 7 and 13 for activity ideas)
