The accompanying resources were a little difficult to obtain, but once I had them it was a small slice of heaven having straightforward instruction to a fair range of information, some of which I found invaluable right away.

This is starting to get to be very dated. I found myself constantly pushing this course to the backburner because it does not take into account jQuery's place in modern Javascript development frameworks. It is, however, good for learning basic jQuery methods and getting a basic understanding of how to grab an element and manipulate it.

Course is good, but I left a 4 rating because some of the classic questions were not dealt with. Like a drop down menu with options. But overall a good course. I can say 4-4.5.
