Computational Thinking with JavaScript 4: Create & Deploy (Coursera)

Offered by University of Glasgow,
Computational Thinking with JavaScript 4: Create & Deploy (Coursera)

This is the fourth and final course in the Computational Thinking with JavaScript specialisation. It is an added-value unit and entirely builds on what you will have learned in the first three units and enables you to synthesise and develop that knowledge. The course supports you to develop your own larger application, using a combination of the technologies you have seen already, including HTML, JavaScript and various libraries, while also encouraging you to reach out to incorporate new libraries.

Syllabus

WEEK 1
Planning your Project
This module lays the foundations for the capstone project, allowing learners to specify the requirements for their JavaScript software application.

WEEK 2
Building your Prototype
This is the main implementation component of this capstone project. We expect this should take two weeks of learner time.

WEEK 3
Evaluating and Improving your Prototype
Towards the end of the capstone project, learners should deploy their working application and present it for peer feedback. After completing their own implementation, learners should provide feedback to others and then reflect on the overall process.
