Customer Review

I was impressed going through the CIW JavaScript course, it was really great and comprehensive; a nice blend of videos and text. Every lesson has short videos that introduce the concepts and a more in-depth note that covers more intricate areas of the language. You also get quizzes in-between to test your understanding of the concepts just covered with very interactive flashcards.

The User Interface Designer Course gave me an even better insight into Web Design and User Experience that I didn't know before. The course used different learning techniques (Videos, Reading, Flashcards, Quizzes, etc.). My favorite part of the tool was having "pop-quizzes" at the end of each learning subject to make sure I understood what was just read. I would rate this course 5 out of 5 stars.

The uCertify JavaScript study guide contains vocabularies, which has digital index cards and you can flip over for definitions. You can also watch videos for understanding the basics, and the text is pretty high in dense, so there's a lot you can learn from. And it's all in easy English, nothing complicated like some of the books you'll find out there.
