The course materials provided here are intended for use by university lecturers/professors who want to teach a practical semester-long course on web technologies and application development to undergraduate or postgraduate students. We base the course on Google web technologies, but the course could obviously be based on other technologies. Notes are included on how the course could be structured and run. A possible course outline is sketched, and we provide some illustrative lectures (presentations), and some sample web applications. Note, this is not intended as an off-the-shelf solution; instructors will likely have to provide additional lectures, and adapt the level and style of practical work to suit the skill and knowledge level of the students.
These materials could also be used in a self-study mode by students and software developers who wish to learn about web application development.
If you are an instructor (lecturer), we suggest reading the Instructor Notes document first. This document provides background and detailed notes on delivering a semester-long, practical course based on the materials provided here. This document can be downloaded, and itself links to all the resources linked from the page you are currently reading. The document is essentially self-contained.
