All in all I thought this was a great foundation setter, with a good mix of learning terms and "theory" behind the methods used, as well as putting concepts that you're learning about along the way to practice (albeit very guided practice). My only complaint is that at times during the more prolonged note taking sections, I had trouble understanding the main narrator and found myself having to replay certain parts back up to 10 times in a row to fully hear what she was saying so I could take accurate and meaningful notes. Combined with that was the speed at which certain concepts were gone over, with 3 or 4 concepts with definitions being launched at us within a 12-15 second period. I understand its not that hard to rewind and pause so it certainly wasn't a huge deal. Just found it to be a little annoying at times when I'm trying to understand a larger concept but have to listen to the same little chunk 7 or 8 times in a row to get my notes down.

The course is extremely well organized and I respect the efforts put into the end of the module summaries. It clearly states what it will cover and what we will learn in every video and I love that. It is a nice course however I think it should be named introduction to Front-end development (which I understand was essential for the backend as well that's why it was placed in this specialization).

I gave it 4 stars instead of 5 because the labs are too easy. Maybe if they were a bit harder and demanded more all of us will leave the course with more confidence. However, the extra resources that it provides are amazing. I personally read one of the books it recommended for HTML and CSS and that helped a lot.

If you want a quick overall introduction to web development, HTML, and CSS as well as CSS frameworks such as Bootstraps then definitely take this course and even use it as a syllabus for further study.

Excellent Course for learning the basics of web development. The structure of the course is well thought out and organized. Despite the fact I was already self taught on front end technology I still gained value from this course. There were things I didn't know about CSS which was covered in this course and I didn't know BootStrap. But most importantly the the thing which I found to be of most value to me was how the internet works. This course portion of the course is well articulated and covers a lot of information, it was well worth the course.

The course is very well done. The instruction speaks very clearly and the visual are very good. The only problem i had was the information came at me very quickly. I had to re watch clips to capture notes and visuals I missed . At the same time i thought re watching helped with a deeper learning so maybe that is to be expected. I was able to finish the course in 3 weeks instead of the 4 weeks the course is divided into.

Here are some improving points, in my opinion:

1. In the web lab for VSC, the preview version in Go live did not work eventhough I followed the steps precisely.

2. I liked the approach of the topics, however I think some of the practices in VSC could contain some more elements to create more interesting or more eye-catching pages, that will motivate as well the student to continue programming.

Thanks!

The course is very good, you learn the basics of how the Internet, browser, and servers work, which is very useful. Although I feel that more exercises are needed, the ones that exist are straightforward and I feel "that they are leading you by the hand." Broadly speaking, it does help if you don't know anything about web development.

I feel like it was too much Front-end for a focused back-end course, but in general (specially the first part) was interesting, learning how the internet works made a lot of clicks for me, like when you skip when you lag in videogames rather than going slower, or when the game tells you you have packet loss.

Good intro to some web technologies and a superficial overview of front-end development. It's a good entry point to a more serious course in WebDev but does not have serious standalone value. The course material is crisp, clear and has ample opportunity for hands on practice,
