    Dont' get me wrong I know it is vital and all in industry and will be of great help when i finally get to learn it properly but My god what a boring topic.
    I can't stand it, any time I hear Use Case, Class Diagram i get shivers down my spine.

    I think it is just my lecturer at college - She is the most boring thing i've ever seen. She just reads out notes and notes that she downloaded from internet not explaining a thing. What doesn't help either is one day she could be talking about use cases's and then she hops onto another topic making us all confused.

    I am doing extremly well in all other subjects but this one - I jsut can't stand, neither can the rest of the class.

    My question is - is there any way that you can learn UML without being bored to bits?

    Again I not slagging UML off here or anything as I know how important it is.

    Thanks.

    Apply it to some project that you are working on and marvel at the results. Hands on is always the best way!
