Stanford Offering Free iPhone Programming Courses Via iTunes

Apple and Stanford University have teamed up on iPhone programming education, and now videos and course materials from Stanford’s course on iPhone development are available via iTunes on iTunes U. The materials are free to download and the class is taught by two Apple engineers.

As someone who is just beginning to poke my nose into Objective-C and iPhone development this is a godsend. Sure, the books from Borders or Amazon are great, but for me personally nothing beats having an instructor, and I am very eager to start watching the videos.

The first video and PDF was posted to iTunes last Friday (April 3rd) and as mentioned above is available as a free download. Here is the direct link to Stanford’s iTunes U page (link opens in iTunes).
