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.

What You will Learn

  • Experience of conceiving, developing and implementing a programming problem of your choice
  • The stages of the software development process

Course 4 of 4 in the Computational Thinking with JavaScript Specialization.

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.

Artificial Intelligence (AI) Education for Teachers (Coursera)

Today’s learners need to know what artificial intelligence (AI) is, how it works, how to use it in their everyday lives, and how it could potentially be used in their future. Using AI requires skills and values which extend far beyond simply having knowledge about coding and technology. This course is designed by teachers, for teachers, and will bridge the gap between commonly held beliefs about AI, and what it really is. AI can be embedded into all areas of the school curriculum and this course will show you how. This course will appeal to teachers who want to increase their general understanding of AI, including why it is important for learners; and/or to those who want to embed AI into their teaching practice and their students’ learning.

Problem Solving Using Computational Thinking (Coursera)

Have you ever heard that computers "think"? Believe it or not, computers really do not think. Instead, they do exactly what we tell them to do. Programming is, "telling the computer what to do and how to do it." Before you can think about programming a computer, you need to work out exactly what it is you want to tell the computer to do. Thinking through problems this way is Computational Thinking. Computational Thinking allows us to take complex problems, understand what the problem is, and develop solutions. We can present these solutions in a way that both computers and people can understand.

JavaScript, jQuery, and JSON (Coursera)

In this course, we'll look at the JavaScript language, and how it supports the Object-Oriented pattern, with a focus on the unique aspect of how JavaScript approaches OO. We'll explore a brief introduction to the jQuery library, which is widely used to do in-browser manipulation of the Document Object Model (DOM) and event handling. You'll also learn more about JavaScript Object Notation (JSON), which is commonly used as a syntax to exchange data between code running on the server (i.e. in PHP) and code running in the browser (JavaScript/jQuery). It is assumed that learners have already taken the Building Web Applications and Building Database Applications in PHP courses in this specialization.
