Top 10 Educational Websites for Students

Image
One of the many spinoffs the Internet has spawned is the birth of the concept of MOOC. As the expansion for it-Massive Open Online Courses-indicates, it is a means to acquiring education through the online medium, by taking up courses whose spread is expansive and accessible to anyone who has a Net connection. The major benefit of MOOC is that it doesn’t require the infrastructure and paraphernalia that traditional, classroom education has mandated for all these years. When the Net is the medium of education, there should be no need for students to flock to classrooms to take up learning in the usual manner. This does away with an entire system of education that we had been used to for a long time, at least theoretically, although the full transformation could take a lot of time.

A lot of people will tell you to read this book, and that one and then the other one as well. I really doubt you need to read more than one book in order to understand JavaScript. I took an entire 15-hour course in pure JavaScript and then forgot everything. Here are three reasons why you should not bother too much about getting to the bottom of JavaScript. The beauty of   learning a new programming language   is to be able to implement something in it. To be able to solve a problem with it. A problem that someone somewhere really cares about. Reading just for the sake of it sounds fun for the first 2 hours into a course or a book but after that, you quickly get bored and fall asleep.

Five Resources to Help You Start Learning JavaScript for Beginners

JavaScript is defined as an object-oriented language that is used essentially to create interactive applications over the Internet. It is considered a high-level scripting language , in that it has the ability to abstract strongly from details in the computer. JavaScript is not the same as the Java programming language or the Java software platform. The primary uses of JavaScript are in the dynamic aspects of a website. The interactivity, animations and automations that we see in webpages are all because of JavaScript. Social media sites, or sites that require dynamic updates like ticket reservations or online shopping, all run on JavaScript.
