If you’re looking to learn Rails 3.0.0 and you’ve got no experience, then you’re in the right place. This class taught at the University of Texas is an 8 week long series of one hour classes, taught by yours truly. We’re going to be doing course work out of the Agile Web Development with Rails version 4 book, so if you’d like to follow along at home, you’ll need to get a copy.

If you have technical questions and don’t have time to wait for class I highly encourage you to find chat room on IRC, or to ask a question on Stack Overflow. I also recommend attending a local Rails user groups such as Austin on Rails. Coding is a social sport, so the quicker you can join the community, the better. 

Topics:

• Dealing with nil
• Acceptance Testing
• Partials
• Cells
• ViewHelpers
• Caching Views
• Memcache

It was a pleasure teaching, hope you enjoyed the class as much as I enjoyed teaching it.
