I've been teaching Clojure for 3 years now in a university course focused on concurrent and parallel programming < http://soft.vub.ac.be/~tvcutsem/multicore/>. While I give a basic intro to Clojure, I mostly stick to just functions + basic collections + the seq API, and of course atoms/refs/agents. As part of that course, I developed a meta-circular implementation of Clojure's STM <https://github.com/tvcutsem/stm-in-clojure>. STM is a pretty complex language feature. I found showing students an implementation of STM in Clojure itself helps them to better understand it. Of course, this is beyond an introductory programming course, so YMMV.
