My approach to learning MVC’s and all other things programming

April 2014

One of the best ways I’ve found to learn new programming techniques is to break them out into a curriculum like structure.

First, scower the web for preparation material. The best place to start is usually their documentation. Use that as your base material for the ‘preparation part of the day’

Second, scower the web for DIY material. Find the build X simple thing using Y style tutorials.

Put out a day by a day plan, that should look like this —

about 2 hours worth of plain preparation material. I.e reading documentation.

Then 8 hours worth of doing material — I.e build x thing with Y.

Third, in about 3 days do a final project. This is something you thought of yourself. It should be simple, but enough to stretch your muscles. If you can build it, you’re on a good start. If you can’t, repeat the previous process.
