Course Abstract:	This course provides participants with an introduction to and coverage of the latest and most common tools, frameworks, and design patterns for building Web 2.0 applications. This course is the first of two targeted at developers. It emphasizes various technologies used in creating solutions that incorporate rich internet applications, content-exchange, AJAX, and JavaScript Libraries. Topics designed to help enrich the client-side include the use of frameworks such as Prototype, Scriptaculous, YUI, and Dojo. Included is a discussion of widget frameworks, with numerous examples from each of these libraries. A good discussion of server-side development includes an examination of quick-to-production scripting languages such as Ruby on Rails. This course is a must before taking the extended course, called: Web 2.0 Application Development.
Audience:	This course is intended for developers seeking to improve their Web 2.0 resumes by looking directly at the technologies in use today. Knowledge of server-side programming concepts is required (no specific language needed). Some JavaScript experience is recommended.
Duration:	2 days
Learning Outcomes:	Upon completion of this course participants will be able to create a complete Web 2.0 application that incorporates JavaScript widgets, AJAX, semantic HTML, different CSS techniques, Ruby, and Rails.
