Learning JavaScript part III
I'm getting back into the JavaScript. I really like the Eloquent Javascript book and online learning system.
When I worked on it before, it really brought home how Codeacademy's methods tech you to mimic code without learning it in any conceptual way. This can be okay for very beginner stuff, but it gets to a point where you're not learning, just copying forms.
I hit a wall in Eloquent, and decided to redo one of the basic projects and then ran out of any free time. I'm just going to start over. I will report back!
