Learning By Academy The first Small Business Academy officially ended on 1st June, with the first batch of graduates coming out the other end after watching 60 videos short videos and learning - what exactly? Well, quite a lot it seems! Here are some of the things you've been saying about it:
Well, I'm not sure about that Chris, although there is certainly no shortage of suggestions for further videos! In case you are wondering, here is what the Suppress Messages button is for, from the Timer lesson: Stopping a Runaway Timer If you are having a problem with a timer, and need to stop it to debug, you can temporarily stop all pending messages by clicking "Messages" in the Toolbar. You should use this with caution as it will stop everything, and you may get unexpected behaviors. Rolling Enrolment After seeing just how helpful and popular the Business Academy is proving, what we have decided to do is make it a rolling enrolment course. So now you can sign up at any time, and get a month of videos emailed to you, 2 per day. Great news if you missed the 1st May signup date! Academy SuperBundle DVD Something else we are doing is making all the academies we have created to date available on one handy data format DVD. This avoids all the hassle of downloading the samples and pdfs, or any issues in streaming the videos online, if your internet connection isn't the best. So if you loved the Business Academy, you'd like to take a look at what we did in the Game Academy or you're interested in the Summer Academy where we taught you how to create your first Mobile App, grab your copy of this great resource today! We've put all three academies on the DVD, plus all the associated materials, stacks, samples, graphics and pdfs. It adds up to a grand total of 74 videos, pretty impressive! The Building Block Format I think the biggest thing we learned here at RunRev from this Academy, is that 3-4 minutes is a great length for a lesson. It lets you really work on learning just one bite sized topic, and (forgive the pun) get your teeth into it. When you combine video with the text and images in the accompanying documentation, plus a sample stack, you have a winning combination that really enables you, the users, to learn how to create your own, full featured, all singing, all dancing app. That makes you happy. And what makes you happy, makes us very happy indeed!
