Are you interested in building dynamic web sites and apps that respond to user actions? Starting from a grounded, hands-on approach, students of this four-week, online course will learn the basics of Javascript. Students will also learn how to integrate Javascript effectively into the Document Object Model, to build exciting web sites as well as simple web apps capable of performing useful work. Upon successful completion of this course students will be able to:

- Correctly integrate Javascript into a web page/app
- Create simple web apps to perform useful tasks
- Create useful Javascript structures like loops, functions, and if/then statements
- Use Javascript libraries, such as the jQuery suite, to make Javascript easier to write, and more cross-browser compatible
