5 4 Chat with Your Instructor This Study Guide will offer some suggestions about how to cover the material in the class. One of the things you should know, regardless of the class you are taking, is that the instructor can t be the sole repository of information for the class and neither can the textbook. Technology simply moves too quickly for that to be a viable option. There is a whole Internet out there. Chances are, someone, somewhere has encountered whatever problem you are having and has solved it. And chances are, someone who has solved your problem has posted the solution on the web. It might not be the exact solution, but it will get you moving toward solving the problem. Having said that, the more vague an assignment is, the more you will learn from it. The author of the text will walk you through building a prototypical app and then tell you to make it better. The tutorial sections sprinkled throughout the chapters are very much like this. We don t want to inhibit you in any way if possible; we want you to think what needs to be improved. Of course, there are always students who need more direction and will need to be dealt with individually. But this is college. Students need to explore not be led by the nose step by step. This book assumes that you have knowledge of basic programming practices. Truly, the language doesn t matter. However, you definitely don t want to be learning at this time how to write loops and conditionals. You ll never get to the cool stuff! The exercises at the end of Chapter 1 ensure that you have the prerequisite skills. If you can t write these programs, either review the course previous this one, or at least look into an Introductory Programming class. Students often learn from experimentation of the materials in the technology topics. For this reason, there are many exercises that you can practice. These exercises may require you to solve a problem, work through a new direction in technology, or even attempt to predict the future. All of the topics and exercises are meant to be thought provoking and to help you apply what you are learning. Finally, you will the exams for each of the lessons. These are taken from the materials in the book, and are not designed to be researched and answered through any resources you may locate on the internet. We wish you an enriching course experience and wish you all the best in your academic endeavors.

An isolated storage file will perform much better that isolated storage settings because a file cannot be streamed in and out of the isolated storage settings as StreamWriter and StreamReader. 5. When using isolated files, you need to use the file stream to save and retrieve the data, and you must be careful to the stream after each use. (1) re-establish (3) delegate (2) dispose (4) deprecate 6. In order to create a sub-directory, you must create a directory path string and pass it to the.

You can put a place holder and dynamically change the content of the Pushpin. 13. Because you are using an emulator on a computer, there is no need to simulate a GPS receiver. 14. The portion of the chapter that deals with the Bing Maps Control will only work if you have an actual Windows Phone 7 device; it cannot be simulated. 15. A registered Windows Phone developer would not need to register with Bing Maps since they are both Microsoft affiliates. 16.
