Today during my lunch hour at office, I was as usual discussing with my colleagues on how can I make my blog posting frequency increased (at same time not diluting my commitments at work and home), well there was no automated solution suggested. Instead we discussed on content (again), apart from writing on emerging technologies, sharing work experience, domain knowledge and events coverage (the one’s that I attend), it was suggested I start tutorials. As part of my job profile at Esberi is to conduct training programs, it would be easier to gather my thoughts and share the same with open community. Though I don’t consider myself as a pro in development, neither do I consider myself no-voice.
As a usual practice, I thought it would be great to first place a tutorial structure so that a systematic and adaptive learning material can delivered through my blog and the capabilities of the users can be leveraged from one tutorial to another. What I always believed and implemented during the training session at work is a famous saying by Albert Einstein “I never teach my pupils; I only attempt to provide the conditions in which they can learn.”
This tutorials are targeted for individuals who wish to take step-by-step approach and learn each module every week and practice them and play around with it. I plan to start the tutorial series with the title called “Learning ActionScript 3″ and this is how it will be organized. Every saturday morning I would post the blog, which would cover certain topic, and after going through the boring yet essential theory which I wrote, you can pull up the attached walkthrough codes and discover and mess with it over the week.
The Learning ActionScript3 would be initially structured much like the Adobe Certification Program courseware (but not the content), and the extensions module like working with Cairngorm, BlazeDS or LCDS would be based on what I use for internal training (no Esberi won’t hurt me). Here is what the content structure would look like:
- Introduction to Flash Player
- Introduction to Flex SDK
- Getting started with AS3
- Code syntax for AS3
- Control Structures with AS3
- OOPs with AS3
This initiative is jut not to post something on this young blog, but instead will also refine my knowledge about technologies. So happy learning !!!!
