Review of our JavaScript Training
by Sean McCown
Contributing Editor to InfoWorld:

Synopsis

This is a very nice introduction to JavaScript. It starts out by explaining what JavaScript is, and what versions there are, etc. I wouldn’t exactly say that it’s for those with no programming experience at all, but it is for someone with no JavaScript experience. It carries some very nice discussions on the different aspects of coding in JavaScript, and shows some nice code examples of each on along with full explanations.

The instructor explained things in a way that I actually understood. I’ve read a couple JavaScript books and I can say I honestly didn’t get it. It’s always been so difficult to me, but when he explained the same concepts here, something just clicked, and I still can’t figure out why the books didn’t just say that.

This course won’t take you to master level, but it’ll definitely give you a firm foundation in the basics (and even a little beyond) and you can pick it up from there. You can’t help but learn JavaScript with this course.

Presentation Style

The presenter is very comfortable with explaining the topic. It’s very easy to see that he’s experienced coding JavaScript as well as working in the tools he uses in the course. He has a comfortable and relaxed way of speaking and knows how to get his point across. His inflections keep you interested as he talks more like he’s teaching you directly and not speaking into a microphone on a computer. He has a lesson plan and he sticks to it without being stuffy about it. The course itself keeps a good pace and it’s divided up in such a way that it would be easy enough to go back and use it as a reference as I have done a couple times already.

Table of Contents

I ordinarily go into detail about here, but it’s just not necessary.  The table of contents is fully available on the website and he does such a good job my comments wouldn’t add anything to the mix.
