Welcome

In CS112 (formerly Co Sci 962) we will review general webpage / website design using HTML5 and CSS. As the title indicates, JavaScript Programming focuses on building a deeper understanding of fundamental web technologies. Each week, this class requires students to spend many hours to work online independently, in addition to completing assigned home-works.  The skills you learn in this class will help you succeed both in and out of class. However, your education is ultimately YOUR responsibility. YOU determine your level of success. Successful college students are self- motivated, who manage their time well and understand the importance of studying the material, not just reviewing lectures, but prepare before class to participate, ask, and practice the skills they learned.  YOU CAN DO IT and I am available to help, as needed. For all class related communications, please click on Inbox from within Canvas. I am looking forward to a great semester with each of you!
