Our friends at online training company Webucator asked Brian Hoke to create a jQuery course for their instructor-guided eLearning platform – a chance for javascript developers to improve their jQuery skills without the cost or hassle of in-person instructor-led training. A series of readings, code examples, and voice-annotated screencasts walk participants through best practices in jQuery development. Topics include javascript and jQuery basics, events and event handlers, effects, working with Ajax, and plugins.
