#2Whaat? My undergrad CS department didn't have anything this focused on a single technology or programming environment. The most specific was the software engineering course where you learned how to use Java and C++ and XML, but the point of that course was not even to teach those things but to teach you how to learn the tools for doing professonal software development (and to help you figure out how to actually build the projects in later courses).
I noticed this was part of stanford's Professional Development course series, but I still am surprised they would offer such a short-term focused course.

#3looking at the course number 193P, it's probably a seminar or special course. maybe just once.
are there more tutorials or videos available?

From the FAQ in http://www.stanford.edu/class/cs193p/downloads/Handout-0-Ove... :
Q: Will the class be televised? A: Yes. This year’s class will be offered via SCPD and will be available online. There is no broadcast on campus cable, it will only be available online.
However it doesn't look like its posted yet, there's no videos on http://scpd.stanford.edu/search/publicCourseSearchDetails.do... - without knowing anything whatsoever about Stanford's policy on SCPD, I'd guess that they'll be posted once the course is over.

193 series are normal undergrad courses. None of them were required (and probably still are not) for a CS degree, but they are an acceptable choice, along with many others. I think I took u (Unix programming), d (C++) and i (Internet programming) back in the day. 193 series is explicitly industry oriented, but the whole point of Stanford CS education is to get the practical experience at the same time you learn the fundamentals. The two are complimentary.

Not only are the 193's not required, they don't count towards the major at all.

SCPD videos are generally only available to students. If you're not an actual Stanford student, they want your money. The videos show up at https://myvideosu.stanford.edu, but you need a valid SUNetID.

I'm taking a Comp Sci class in flash animation and graphic design. Not only does it not count towards the major, but nor for any elective, either (of the ones I have remaining to fulfill). But I wanted to take it... and it's been worth it.
