The course will cover more advanced topics within the JavaScript language (object orientation). These advanced topics will delve further into the JavaScript language specifications and will include topics such as closures and higher-order functions. The candidates will be taught all aspects of working with JavaScript Object Notation (JSON).
Working with data is the cornerstone of developing web services, and Programming with Objects is the means by which data is modelled and manipulated in a modern software solution. In the majority of cases, data accessed from external sources will be delivered in the JSON format, and developers must be familiar with how to convert retrieved data into usable information. This course will also ensure that candidates are familiar with advanced JavaScript topics, which will enable them to produce more secure and robust solutions.
The candidate:
- has knowledge of concepts, processes and tools that are used in Object Orientated programming and JavaScript Object Notation
- has knowledge of concepts, and processes of functional programming as an alternative to Object Orientated programming
- has knowledge of industry and the JavaScript Developer role with the associated responsibilities
The candidate:
- can apply vocational knowledge of Object Orientation concepts to practical and theoretical problems
- masters JavaScript Object Notation techniques, and styles
- masters advanced JavaScript tools, materials, techniques, and styles
- can find information and materials this is needed to building general purpose JavaScript solutions to relevant problems
Digital Learning Resources
The learning management system (LMS) is the primary learning platform where students access most of their course materials. The content is presented in various formats, such as text, images, models, videos or podcasts. Each course follows a progression plan, designed to lead students through weekly modules at their own pace. Exercises and assignments (individual or in groups) are embedded throughout the courses to support continuous practice and assessment of the learning outcomes.
Campus Resources
In addition to the digital learning resources, campus students participate in physical learning activities led by teachers as part of the overall delivery.
Guidance
Guidance and feedback from teachers support students' learning journeys, and may be provided synchronously or asynchronously, individually or in groups, via text, video or in-person feedback.
