Overview
Sams Teach Yourself PHP and MySQL Video
Learning brings the successful Teach Yourself book series
from Sams Publishing to life on video — with the same clear and
concise style, practical hands-on examples, and self-paced learning
approach that have made the bestselling books so popular with
beginners looking for the easiest way to quickly get up to speed on
a new technology.
This complete video course provides up to four hours
of clear, well-organized video instruction. Each
10-minute video lesson uses a consistent, step-by-step learning
structure. After a short overview of the topic from the
series instructor, each lesson presents a short, richly illustrated
tutorial lesson, followed by a hands-on learning lab, and
concluding with an interactive quiz lets the learner test how well
he or she has grasped the material before moving on.
