I have avoided writing the next entry in my series on learning the UML for several weeks. I keep sitting down to write it but quickly get frustrated and give up. Today I tried to force myself to write the entry and I still came up empty handed. I’m running into a fundamental problem when teaching something: You’ve got to know the subject matter!
I planed to write an introductory entry which acted as a quick overview of the various types of UML diagrams. Unfortunately, this has not been as easy as I hoped it would be. The fact of the matter is that to write an introduction to something, you know to know more about it than I do (yet).
So, I’ve decided to skip this entry and to save it till last. When I’m done with all of my entries on the UML diagrams I will then write the diagram overview. After this is done I will piece all of the entries together into a short book and make it available freely on this website.
Look for the next entry to be on requirements gathering! Coming soon to this blog!

Stick with it Doug. Anything you come up with, even if it’s not in the proper pedagogical order, will still teach many people something new. A spark of an idea that causes folks to dig deeper into a subject means that you helped.
I, for one, get many ideas from your writings.
