Webcasts for the Neighborhood Map Project

Need some additional help getting started with the Neighborhood Map Project, or simply curious and want to learn a little bit more? Watch the following Webcasts!

These webcasts are recordings of live Q&A sessions and demos. They have been edited to be shorter and more relevant to newer rubrics. As always, you should read the appropriate rubric for your project thoroughly before you begin work on any project and double check the rubric before submitting. The videos were made by Udacity's coaches. Think of them as extra supplemental materials. You can find an archive of our webcasts in their entirety in the discussion forums under Webcasts Summaries.

Here you will find webcasts on the project rubric, general tips, advice on how to begin a completely new project, a walkthrough of the basics of Knockout.js and a video with various Q & A.
