Anatomy of The Curriculum

Each of the "First Time Programmers" series contains two workbooks, a Questions edition and an Answers edition, which is identical to the Questions edition but contains the answers to all the questions in blue text.

Each lesson has one or more parts, as follows:

 Lesson Objectives - Easily identify what the goals of the lesson are.

 Lesson Text- Typically a few pages explaining the concepts for the lesson. The readings are concise and focus on concepts and ideas that are appropriate for the level you are at. The lessons avoid introducing unused or comple

 Videos to Watch- Most lessons contain a video that demonstrates the concepts of the lesson. This is a powerful way to learn because its like watching over the shoulder of an expert while he "shows you the ropes."

 Source Code - All source code that is created in the video is available for you to inspect on your own.

 Extended Readings - These are links to parts of the Microsoft Developer's Network that are important for you to know. These readings extend the Lesson Text and often get into much more detail.

 Definitions- While you are reading through the Lesson Text and the Extended Readings, you will come across many new terms that you should make sure you know.

 Lesson Questions - Each lesson will have a number of review questions that re-inforce your new-found knowledge and force you to put it into your own words.

 Best Practices - Most of the videos make recommendations that are considered "Best Practices" -- approaches that are tried and true. When available the workbook contains an area to record these Best Practices.

 Exercises- Most lessons have a project for you to work on that covers concepts introduced in the readings and the video. The exercise requires you to open Visual Studio.NET and get your hands dirty. If you get stuck, you can watch a video that shows how we would have solved that exercise, including the source code.
