JavaScript/JQuery: August section

Javascript is a language that all good web developers must know. Being around since the early 90s it's still the primary way to do client side web development. We will be covering basic Javascript, to the JQuery library, dynamic HTML, to JSON and APIs. Students will exit this class having a good grasp of basic programming principles and the knowledge of how to manipulate html elements.

We suggest having a working knowledge of HTML as a pre-requisite for this course.
