Lesson 8 Feedback

@amelinagzz - Feedback on Intro to UIKit

Keep us Updated: Instead of hard-coding versions in there you need to update each term (or each year, rather), tell them how to download the updates and where to go. That way you dont need to update the slides each time

Scenes: provide a visual aid here. You're talking about a very visual topic in this lesson, and there's a lot of text-only slides. show them what a scene is, rather than explaining it.

VC: Make it clear that VC means View Controller. For example, instead of saying "VC", say "View Controller (VC)", and then refer to it as VC after that

Views: These slides need visuals. It would be great to have one per slide to showcase what's going on, or a GIF may work even better if a static image isn't enough. Happy to talk through this with you more

Interface Essentials: What's going on here? Are you just going over docs? May be better to have an activity that requires them to implement it themselves using the docs

MVC: This probably needs more than 1 slide to explain, but maybe you're doing more in class? A cool idea would be to project this slide onto a whiteboard and then fill in the boxes with info! Curious what your thoughts on here as to what's worked.

Autolayout: again, needs images!! Show them the things, don't just talk about it!
