TechWhirl (TECHWR-L) is a resource for technical writing and technical communications professionals of all experience levels and in all industries to share their experiences and acquire information.
For two decades, technical communicators have turned to TechWhirl to ask and answer questions about the always-changing world of technical communications, such as tools, skills, career paths, methodologies, and emerging industries. The TechWhirl Archives and magazine, created for, by and about technical writers, offer a wealth of knowledge to everyone with an interest in any aspect of technical communications.
I guess everyone's learning style is different. I learned FrameMaker
first by self-teaching, then in the classroom where the instructor
actually had us follow the Classroom in a Book (CIB) lessons. My
knowledge of WebWorks Publisher (related) is completely self-taught.
For beginners, I think the CIB is a good start, but my style is to just
dig in and get my hands dirty. I learn best in a non-linear way, by
trial and error. On the other hand, because I am non-linear, there are
things I might miss by teaching myself that a classroom instructor would
be sure to mention.
JMHO.
