REFLECTION AS PARTICIPANT 03 - JavaScript for Beginners Complete Course

Event Title: “JavaScript for Beginners Complete Course”

 

I.             Details of the event/activity

            The "JavaScript for Beginners Complete Course" is an online course offered by PROPER DOT INSTITUTE through Udemy. Completed on June 7, 2024, this 2-hour course covered fundamental aspects of JavaScript programming. The course aimed to provide beginners with a solid foundation in JavaScript, preparing them for more advanced programming tasks.

 

II.            Reflections the webinar/activity give rise to (learnings)

JavaScript ‘Conditional Statements’: Gained an understanding of how to use ‘if’, ‘else if’, and ‘else’ statements to control the flow of a program based on different conditions. Then ‘Do While Loop’: Learned the syntax and application of the do while loop, which ensures that the loop's body is executed at least once before the condition is tested. The following learnings here are the ‘Comparison Operators’: It is to familiarized with comparison operators such as ==, ===, !=, !==, >, <, >=, and <= to compare values and determine logical relationships between them. And lastly the ‘Page Redirect’: To acquired knowledge on how to use JavaScript to redirect users to different pages, enhancing navigation and user experience on websites.

 

III.           Reflections on possibilities on implementing some of the webinar input on a practical level. (Practical application of learnings)

                The practical learnings of the knowledge gained from this course are valuable.

            Utilizing conditional statements and comparison operators to validate user input in forms ensures data accuracy before submission. Implementing do while loops and conditional statements can create interactive and dynamic web elements that respond to user actions. Applying page redirect techniques improves the flow of web applications, guiding users to relevant pages based on their interactions. Additionally, using conditional statements to handle errors gracefully provides users with informative messages and fallback options.

 

IV.          Positive feedback (on the event organization)

                The course was well-organized and presented in a clear and concise manner. The instructor provided detailed explanations and practical examples, making complex concepts easier to understand. The course structure allowed for a smooth progression from basic to more advanced topics, ensuring a comprehensive learning experience.

 

V.           Suggestions for improvements to be made/ consider for future activities

                I suggest including more interactive coding exercises to reinforce the concepts learned. Providing supplementary resources such as cheat sheets, reference guides, and further reading materials would be beneficial. Extending the course duration slightly could allow for more examples and real-world applications to be covered in greater detail.
