Research direction

Start with the linked MDN Curriculum and compare it with Khan Academy, Scrimba, The Odin Project, and Ops School. Research additional programming resources for fifteen to thirty minutes, choose one valuable and one probably unhelpful resource, and share the links and authority evaluations in Slack, then comment with your thoughts.

Learning Objectives
  • Research self study resources
  • Evaluate authority of resources
Why are we doing this?

As you learn with us, you will often use other curricula as well. We encourage you to explore and use quality free resources that are available online. Mentors will most often refer you to MDN and this site also has a free curriculum you can use: MDN Curriculum to work on anything you want to explore more or feel you need more work on. MDN is a high quality resource.

We also make a lot of use of:

Bookmark all these resources now. However, the best way to quickly find help with your programming topic is to search with a specific language and resource as keywords: topic language resource. For example

for loop js mdn

This will quickly take you to a well targeted resource.

You will use many other resources as you progress. Not all resources are equal. Spend fifteen to thirty minutes googling other programming resources now. Pick one you think is valuable and one you think is probably not very useful. Share the links in Slack, explaining how you made your decision. Look at what other people are posting. Do you agree with their evaluations? Why or why not? Comment with your thoughts.
