Impress Corporation (Headquarters: Chiyoda-ku, Tokyo, President: Takashi Takahashi), which develops IT-related media businesses within the Impress Group, will begin distributing an on-demand course on Thursday, April 23. Offered through the 'Impress Books Academy', an on-demand distribution course where you can learn skills and concepts useful in business and practical work, this course packages the PDF e-book version of the standard introductory book for programming beginners, 'Learn C# Basics in 1 Week, 2nd Edition', with a practical explanatory video by the author.

■ Eliminating the 'I stumbled on the intro book' phase: Hybrid learning with books x videos

For programming beginners, the difficulty of setting up the environment and understanding specialized jargon often becomes the 'first wall' that hinders learning. These issues are factors that cause people to give up on mastering programming. This course solves these challenges by combining the reliability of the 'Learn in 1 Week' series with practical demonstrations by the author, Kenji Kameda.

Through about 90 minutes of video explanation, learners will grasp the basic essence of programming from a state of zero knowledge, ultimately understanding the 'overview of object-oriented programming'. By visually grasping the operational feel and the flow of running a program through the video—things that are hard to visualize just by reading a book—it helps clarify the direction of study.

Since you can set up the environment alongside the video, from installing the currently mainstream text editor 'Visual Studio Code (VS Code)' and localizing it to Japanese, to configuring the extension for C# development support (C# Dev Kit), you can start practical programming learning immediately. Moreover, to ensure even those with no programming experience do not stumble, it explains from the basic rules of C#, such as operations and variables. It proceeds logically and clearly up to the concept of 'classes and instances', an object-oriented concept that beginners often find challenging.

This course comes with the PDF e-book version of the standard introductory book for programming beginners, 'Learn C# Basics in 1 Week, 2nd Edition'. By first watching the video to 'intuitively' grasp how the program works and the overall flow, and then supplementing the detailed grammar and rules through studying the book, the speed of understanding improves dramatically.

■ Features of this course

1. Complete reproduction of operations in the practical development environment 'Visual Studio Code'

The video demonstrates the author's screen operations exactly, from introducing the mainstream editor 'Visual Studio Code', translating it to Japanese, and setting up extensions. You can start learning C# without getting lost. Rather than just memorizing grammar, you practically acquire the 'basic essence' of creating and running programs yourself. You can firmly grasp the true nature of how programs work.

2. Understand from zero knowledge to an overview of object-orientation

The structure allows even those with no programming experience to learn progressively from the basic rules of C# so they don't get frustrated halfway. Starting from the basics of 'What is the C# language?', it carefully steps through text output to the screen, calculations (operations), conditional branching, and iterative processing. Finally, it guides you to effortlessly understand the overview of 'object-orientation (concepts of classes and instances, etc.)', which many beginners find challenging, using intuitive analogies like car blueprints.

3. Lowering the barrier of reading books and clarifying the direction of study

Many feel it's a high hurdle to proceed using only the text of a book because they can't visualize the operations. In this course, you can visually confirm via video the environment setups and operational feelings that are easy to stumble on, such as entering commands in the terminal (like dotnet run) and configuring VS Code. At the end of the course, it presents 'learning guidelines' for improving programming, such as 'build small and run (focus on output)' and 'don't avoid errors', clearly showing learners which direction to proceed in the future.

5. Highly convenient distribution via Coeteco College

'Coeteco College' is used for distribution. Students can start learning anytime from their PCs or smartphones, regardless of location or time.

■ This course is recommended for the following people:

- Those who are considering learning C# but don't know where to start
- Those who tried an introductory book once but gave up due to difficulty in environment setup or jargon
- Business persons who want to acquire 'logical thinking' in programming in a short time
- Corporate educators who want to standardize IT training for newcomers and reduce education costs

■ Adopting 'Coeteco College' as the distribution platform, providing a comfortable learning environment
