[udig-devel] Creating a new course

[Jody Garnett <jgarnett@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hello Mike, this email eventually found its way to me.

We recently put together a training course on uDig and I found it a very 
pleasant way to be introduced to working with spatial concepts.  It is 
much easier to start working directly with Features with out the bother 
of connecting to them, or worrying about displaying the results on 
screen.  Students were very pleased when they were able to programically 
create new shapefiles on the second day of the course for example.

What topics were you going to cover in you module?

We can send you the outline of our training course if that would be of 
assistance?
I would start with using uDig to look at data, and introduce them to 
programming with features. And then transition over to a web-based 
applications such as GeoServer?
