Why should I learn to Program?

Really? Do you really want to know?

Every device around you can be programmed and has been programmed to make it useful. Just imagine the power in your hands if you start to program those devices and bend them to your will.

Why Ruby?

Ruby is Fun.
Simple yet Powerful ( write less code that does more, take advantage of packages and gems).
Ruby is Fundamental to Rails( a really good web framework).

I started out with Ruby as I use it everyday. Also, I believe that many students would want to learn web development with Ruby on Rails.

Why you should take this class?

Many students don't have a good experience when starting out to learn programming. This needs to change. This is my attempt to make it really simple for students to understand that programming is easy and anyone can learn it. This is the first class on Ruby. A plan to offer a course based on this class is in works. If you like the class you may decide to take the course and become familiar with Ruby Programming.

Beginner Level

Will to learn. A computer to program in ruby. Ask any question you have. Nothing is trivial in a beginner class. It would be great if you can install ruby before class. Otherwise you may want to arrive at 6pm and we will help you install it.
