hi Joy Kesten, et al.,
not a question, just a comment ā
in both your video and the quiz that accompany it, you name JavaScript as only a front-end development language in your Computer Basics course. however, with the advent of Node.JS, JavaScript now can be server-side delivering to a client also.
just wanted to clairfy that; perhaps you wish to update this cours to reflect that? just my suggestion.
best,

Maybe not. These courses tend to teach people what a program is and how the internet works. It is just the beginning of the rabbit hole that is Information Technology.
