Haven't there been free iphone dev courses from stanford for free for over a decade? I recall iTunesU hosting them, and perhaps Coursera/EdX, and their own website etc. Which is great, of course, but is this different?

From the article: “ Stanford has made these lecture videos available to all by posting them on its YouTube channel (links below). This website was set up to give everyone access to the supporting material that was distributed to students during the quarter (homework, demo code, etc.).”

    But I thought iTunes-U is shutting down? Maybe that’s why the wording is as such.

Yes. I went through the course in one it’s earliest releases. I’m not sure if all of the assignments were posted then, and the site wasn’t as good.

Yes I learned iPhone development in 2010 by watching Stanford's CS193P course on iTunesU

Thanks—I've changed the title now. Submitted title was "Stanford Makes iPhone Development Course Free".
