Programming for beginers

[shahul.stilldead]

i've some across lot of people who want to learn programming but are
not able to do so because they have limited access to learning tools.
i think we should start up a new unit of ubuntu(like MIT OCW, iTunes
U) which teaches the basics like C,C++,C#,java & basic computer
structure & of course a forum where people can chat & get there
doubts/problems cleared. it must be easy to understand & learn.
we have seen a lot of initiatives like : http://www.cprogramming.com/.
but these are hard to understand & not exactly aimed at the "dummies"
categories. alos no forum support. i think this will also help to
bring the community together. many developers like myself do not
exactly have the time to actually develop but we can help i the
forums.
we must try & create a library of references (like Xcode)& links to
various sites which may help them to. i'm an Indian and can see how
lots of young teens want to do so . i think we see a potential to not
only help ,but also expand the ubuntu cause & become make them become
a part of it. we need more involvement & this is the only way i think
we can do so.
thank you.


keep me posted.
