This is the first course I am taking in Coursera.org. The valuable instructors of Duke University designed and created a masterpiece for learners. Thank you so much guys. Greets from Istanbul, Turkey.

Really a good course for beginners! You can construct a clear background knowledge about programming, learn to logically think about programming, and practice JavaScript, HTML, and CSS step by step.

Fine course. Interesting with the green screen theme, but I think the amount of program exercises with color manipulation algorithms is to high. I better like to learn more about javascript.

Too many bad test questions. Not a fan of using codepen since it doesn't make you implement the <html> tag. Activities were decent practice. Speakers in videos seemed afraid of the camera.

The content and explanations are excellent although it seems to me that they focused only on the part of image design when in programming there are many more more interactive utilities

While the course was able to produce a good sense of basic understanding of web development, it lacked on telling us more about CSS, and that is why I think it could improve!

javascript is really hard to understand, by the order of the functions. Some function can be written so many different ways that it makes it hard to understand your logic !

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.

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.
