Using the PowerPoint Presentation

There is a PowerPoint presentation that comes with this course. You may find it most useful for the first lesson: Introduction to APEX. After that, we recommend you use it infrequently, if at all, and instead teach from the APEX environment itself and the courseware.

Preparation

As with any course, you should go through the material thoroughly before teaching it. You're also welcome to get an evaluation copy of the Advanced Oracle Application Express Courseware (APEX201), so that you know what would be in the follow-on course, in case students ask about features that are not covered in this course.
