JavaScript Web Development Course Overview

The JavaScript Web Development course provides a core understanding of the JavaScript programming language and supporting libraries.

In a practical, hands-on environment, delegates work with JavaScript in a browser environment to compose and manipulate web aspects and components using a variety of techniques.

Skills Gained

The delegate will practice:

• Using the core JavaScript language
• Using functions and Objects
• Controlling Windows
• Using the W3C DOM
• Timing JavaScript
• Handling JavaScript events
• Debugging JavaScript
• Asynchronous techniques using AJAX/AHAH/JAH
• Using libraries, such as jQuery

Who will the Course Benefit?

The JavaScript course is aimed at Web Developers and Designers that require a core understanding of the use of JavaScript in web development.

Course Objectives

Delegates will gather a core understanding of the practical application of the JavaScript language and common libraries in a web context. The core of the language is the main concern, introducing the major features of web programming such as the DOM, browsers, user interaction and working in a browser environment in order to provide a grounding in the major aspects of JavaScript web development.

Requirements

An understanding of web markup languages (HTML, XHTML) is a requirement, as JavaScript will be presented in conjunction with web markup and interact with page elements.

Programming experience would be advantageous. While not a specific requirement, it would be beneficial if delegates had some exposure to either a procedural or object oriented language and have sufficient core understanding of programming structures and concepts.
