Why Learning by Sample?

During I learned a desktop-based visual programming and web-based, there is an important lesson taken from a learning process. That learning programming is very hard to do if starts with a theory and concepts that are too high.

It will lead novices give up before starting the learning process by immediately imagine how hard it is to learn a programming language. Of course it is very harmful for learners, both in the academic world and professional world.

And after trying various methods, came to a conclusion that was a learning process that is considered the author of today's most effective and efficient is to learn programming in a way just try to make applications from the simplest level to the level of the complex in stages. Method that also often called as Learning by Sample referred to as the already proven to learn a programming language faster and better.

The actual method has been applied also by Microsoft to publish the series HOL (Hands On Lab) featuring examples of programming with a certain level and immediately put into practice by the user. HOL unfortunately is rarely noticed by novice programmers, and still not popular usage for both academia and professional.
