Tutorials

Basic concepts on a subject form the foundation. Tutorials are for building the foundational concepts in concise but comprehensive manner.

In work life and personal life often we need to learn the basics on a subject quickly. Usually it is not easy to acquire the basic concepts on any subject reliably in a short time from a concise material.

Basic concepts on any subject form the foundation, but generally we have found it is not easy to build it in a short time. Our focus here is on base concepts in a concise form that can be learned quickly and be used as a launch pad for further learning and subject specific problem solving.

Often we added a rich concept layer derived from the base concepts that helps to solve more complex problems with great ease. For us, it is a two layer concept model: Base concepts and Rich concepts derived from base concepts. Objective is efficient problem solving.
