Resumo: It is known that code readability has an impact on software quality. This paper introduces a preliminary list of 33 good practices for code readability that could be taught in object oriented programming courses of informatics programs. In this set are included practices with both positive and negative impact, the latter mainly from bad smells. A survey was made with OOP teachers in order to assess the significance of teaching a set of good practices. The results showed that teachers consider it important to teach the defined set. Such result was statistically significant. Still, the same level of significance was not awarded to all practices. Some additional results are presented.
