Reviews for this release

     
I only went trough 1-Modularity exercises and my conclusion is that the instructions associated with the exercises are outdated. So I feel that this Training Kit could be really useful but only if it's completely updated to reflect the changes of Silverlight V4. On the good side, the structure and organisation of the content is very good. But the content itself is the problem.

I found some problems halfway through Dependency Injection Exercise 2 Task 2. The code wouldn't run at that point. I really struggled trying to understand why I was doing what I was doing. There needs to be more vivid instructions and the labs need to be nailed down. I would suggest taking a newbie through the labs to see where the glitches are.

First off, this training kit is excellent. The 1 thing I am trying to figure out in the UI Composition lab, is to allow the details of the first item to show when the application runs. Initially, the list comes up and you have to click on something to see the details. How do you get the details to show for the first item when the view opens?
