Hi all!! Regarding to our chairman's concern of programming, the following 2 tutorial files have been compiled by me (with reference to their respective websites) n i refer to them for my programming lessons and techniques also, so take a look:

1)What is a Microcontroller_PIC programming
http://www.mhennessy.f9.co.uk/pic/index.htm

This is a basic introdution to microcontrollers and programming techniques involved for the PIC, which gives a revision of what is a microcontroller, and explains in detail most of the basic operations like creating time delay and outputting data. Read this first!! All said n done, for those who know NOTHING about microcontroler programming, you will need an extra introductory lesson with me. More about that on the next post.

2)Nigels PIC Tutorials
http://www.winpicprog.co.uk/pic_tutorial.htm

This set of tutorials has lots of codes, but won't have explanations on the basics, as it assumes you've already known that. Although less explanation on the basics, it does focus on all the advance features of the PIC and how to use them in a 'simple' way. Great place for source code templates but be sure to UNDERSTAND the code before copying or you may not get wat u think you would get (^-^)"

For those who have knowledge in microcontroller programming (from whatever manufacturer, like Motorola, Atmel, Micro Stamp....) will feel right at home with the tutorials.For those who don't know, i'll discuss with our chairman and see what suitable time during the sem break should i hold the small tutorial class (somewhere between 20th and 26th).

Hope it helps! =D
