Best place to learn ASP.Net / PHP / Javascript Online?

minit

I know there are plenty of good books out there on how to learn these languages. But, I'd like to get signed up with some structured teaching online. I already have a B.S. in IS, so I'm looking for just the specific language classes. Western Governors? U. Pheonix? Any tips where I can sign up for these classes online?

Thanks!

You actually have two options, and both are free.

W3Schools Online Web Tutorials

If all you want to do is learn in a structured way how to program in those languages (though I didn't see .Net in thenewboston, but Visual Basic was there), then either of those sites will get you too it. You can then supplement those topics to whatever reading material you are using.

I will warn you about thenewboston..."Bucky" can be somewhat annoying. You will have to do your best to get past his way of presenting in order to seriously follow along. However when he gets into the material, he's pretty decent. He did help a lot with passing the CIW Javascript exam quickly. I was thankful for that.

But as I said, both options are FREE.

Thanks for the reply erp, I really appreciate it. I'll check those out. However, I'd probably actually prefer something that costs something. I know that sounds funny. But, using these resources feels a little too 'on my own' in a way. I'd prefer something where I can actually interact with an actual teacher.

Well, that's fine too...you can probably check your own community colleges in your area and see if they teach those languages. Or something like Global Knowledge/New Horizons for the ASP .NET stuff. But if you want something in the interim, you got those.

But don't discount something because it's free. (That's really what that sounds like.) You could wait for someone to give you classroom instruction or you could just give yourself a headstart.

For JavaScript, you should sign up for the 52-week class at CodeAcademy.com. This is my first time learning JavaScript, and I completed all lessons so far, but I do have some programming backgrounds, so I'm pretty much bored with the class for now.

Stanford University also is offering a free Intro to Comp Sci class which starts soon.

My advice with regards to program. You need to learn the underlying logic to coding. Once you know and understand that, you can apply that to any programming language.
