The course provides a clear introduction to how the internet functions and the basics of web development. It's beginner-friendly, explaining server-client relationships and HTTP effectively. Visual aids are helpful, but adding interactive quizzes or exercises would enhance learning. More real-world examples could improve the practical application of concepts. Overall, a solid foundation for anyone new to web development.

The course is quite interesting, and it helps me in revising all my concepts of networking. The instructor teaches the course in a very easy way and made it exciting for me.

By Amlan Ghosh on 11/7/2020

This course is really good. But the course is not complete yet. Please update the contents of this course. Because without completing the full course I get the certificate. We want to complete full course. And please add some quizzes or questions so that we can practice what we have learned. This course only contains video lectures.

O início é ok. Esperava mais da parte final. O modelo apresentado na seção3 atende bem sistemas web dos anos 2000. Esperava apresentar algum modelo de estrutura de portais orientados a micro serviços, como ar organização de módulos como gateway, gerenciador de tokens e perfis, gerador e validador de certificados, criptografia, etc.

Good if one wants to have a very basic understanding of how internet works without going too deep. Also, it can be a starting point if one wants to have a deeper understanding about internet. And the web development process has a basic overview only, thus can make one wonder if there is be more.

By Snazzy Sensei on 6/14/2020

It is a great course for newbies who only know how to update their facebook and snapchat. It tells you how the info coming to your browser is actually coming there and what methods are applied to secure your connection and how to tell whether a connection is secure or not among other stuff.

By Tanvir Hasan on 4/19/2020

Very good. Contains basic information about how internet works. Illustration with slides is awesome. But this course is for absolute beginner who have no prior knowledge abut how internet work.

By Yassin Lemrozi on 4/4/2020

Course in line with expectations, it deals in a very simple way with the fundamental points on how the internet works, maybe not very detailed on Web Development, but overall, for those who do not know anything about the topic, it is a great way to give yourself a small base.

By Liliana Suarez on 2/8/2020

By Zabil Qureshi on 9/1/2019

This course was good, easy to understand for beginners. But this course is incomplete it gives only web dev process overview and a detailed first process info. but other 11 processes aren't showing at all. This course is good for some basic networking terms so thats why I am giving it high ratings plus it was free... so worth trying
