Excellent course .

Just felt that there should be examples that could help someone to understand in a more better way.The videos were good and were very simple and easy to understand then the text.

A very helpful code which allows you to learn the simple of JavaScript HTML and CSS. Very helpful in building websites and an excellent course for beginners or even people who have never coded before.

I would be happy for more thorough explanations. At times it looked like for people who have some previous (basic) experience with programming. Still a nice course though.

Good introduction to very basic stuff. I skipped many videos and found the same information on the internet. If it wasn't part of the specialization I wouldn't pick it.

I came here to learn Java, NOT JavaScript. Major distraction! Also, I think it would be better if VS Code were used instead of CodePen and the Duke University site.

Is a pretty good starting point, but if you don't have any computer knowledge before this, it will most likely take extra time to understand the way it's explained.

Needs to be looked over for copy and clarity, very odd formatting of quiz questions. Assistance would have been helpful, I had to get a tutor on the side.

The course was a little light on describing some programming concepts that I would of struggled with in the exercises had I not had previous experience.

Everything is perfectly defined and explained but also there needs to have more focus on amount of content and resources which are not taught in this

It is a very neat and organized learning experience. It is not perfect (nothing is), but it is one of the best learning experiences I have ever had.

This content in the course was not totally explained like the code how and why are we writing this only. How and when those keywords are working.

This course lost focus in later half and I nowhere I felt learning JS but just using JS as a tool to learn most of Image manipulation techniques.

All the basics for beginners. Some step by step and some things make you think and research more references. I think that's a great combination.

i wish there could be more personal help for problems and not just the forums.

i never got there any help and had to use a lot of outside help.

This course is very difficult. I recommend only taking it if you have some experience with syntax. Although very challenging, I learned a ton.

The first week was a bit slow, but things picked up a bit after that. If you have programming experience, this course is not very challenging.

It should be possible to complete the course (in the coursera environment) without paying. I want it to be in the "completed courses" section

All done in simplified development environment, still not clear how to code webpage with HTML and CSS using JavaScript after the course.

J'ai adoré ce cour de spécialisation même s'était un peu difficile pour les codages,et les cours sont compréhensibles je vous remercie.

HTML and CSS were well explained and clearly cover. However, some of the JavaScript was glossed over and very difficult to follow.

stated as a beginner course, but you need to have known a lot of coding prior to beginning the course. MUCH research is required.

By Paula Á C

Lessons are too compact and some of the videos too long and full of content, so it's hard to process all the information at once.

I wish there were more in depth examples instead of providing a code and telling us what it does without explaining it further.

This course is fine, but by week 3 and 4, it is already getting very advanced. It is quite impossible to finish within 4 weeks

While this is a good intro course, I don't think this course delves deep enough into JavaScript to be applicable in practice.

It is a good course, but I'm not sure it's simple enough for beginners - it doesn't teach you all the steps you need to know
