Product reviews for CSS3 and HTML5 Advanced

This was a great course and the instructor was very helpful and knowledgeable. I highly recommend it to anyone who desires to extend their web design capabilities.

Verified Student

This class was presented in an easy-to-understand format. It had helpful information on how to add HTML5 native video and for using jQuery. Adding slideshow and video to websites was easy to understand. I would recommend this class to anyone wanting to make their website more inviting and with a mobile site.

Verified Student

I love this class. The class was much more interactive than I had thought it would be. I learned not only from my own questions, but also from reading about problems other students had and from the replies by both students and teacher. Content and instructions were well-written and easy to follow. Everything I needed to know for the class was explained in the chapters. The suggested resource books were helpful. I am ready to recommend it for others. Thank you, David.

I truly enjoyed learning more about HTML5 and CSS3. This is the first course that I was somehow convinced by the instructor to put my coursework live online. Because of that, I felt a great sense of accomplishment when I accessed my jQuery mobile-based site on my iPod Touch.

I am really glad I took the course because it was what I needed to motivate me to redo the website I "inherited" (even though I still have a lot of work to do on it). The course has made me feel that even though I am an amateur at this, I can have a website that is both functional with all the modern technology and still pleasing to the viewer.

Verified Student

David was extremely knowledgeable on the subject matter, and the class was a perfect fit for my needs.

Excellent course! Other courses I have taken were informative and helpful. This course was an order of magnitude better, in that it was more engaging and represented a far more sophisticated and savvy approach to the material. I will be looking into David Karlins' books and hope to see other courses by him in the future.

Verified Student

David Karlins is a very good instructor. This course helped reinforce what I had learned previously. This has encouraged me to learn scripting. The instructor encourages creativity and made the assignments enjoyable. This has brought out areas of web design that I like most. I would highly recommend this course and instructor.

This course was excellent. I loved how it built up to jQuery Mobile in Lesson 11, and then followed with ThemeRoller. It fits perfectly as a way of moving anyone with prior experience into contemporary mobile capability. I could not have been happier with this course. I have taken a number of other courses prior to this one, and this was a nice capstone to the others.

Product reviews for Be Funny!

As a university professor, I have designed and taught online courses myself, so I wanted to see what it was like to be an online student. I have very much enjoyed the course and I have greatly appreciated Joanna's teaching style, her support, feedback and constant encouragement. As a result I have learned a lot, more than I expected to, about many different areas of life, connected by humour. Thank you very much, Joanna.

Joanna is a very funny gal whose experience in the comedy writing world gives the rest of us insight into how the mechanics of comedy work. I would recommend this class to folks who are looking for a patient, knowledgeable instructor willing to guide them toward more skillful comedy and writing creation. The best part is that they'll have a good time learning!

Verified Student

Thanks Joanna! I enjoyed the course and discovered I was funnier than I ever dreamed I could be. The gift of laughter must be right up there with health and love, and you helped us to discover that gift.

Verified Student

This class was just what I needed to get ideas that I could incorporate with my short story writing. The instructor was prompt [and] encouraging with her answers. I was exposed to many new ideas!

Verified Student

In all the years I've been in show business, no one ever would share these valuable secrets and tools. Comedy is something you can work at and get better at, just like singing or playing. I really appreciate learning this from Joanna. She is a quite gifted writer and teacher.

Verified Student

Joanna has helped me to hone my natural sense of humor by allowing me to put names to certain techniques. In this way, I feel like I have more control over being funny--that it is somewhat of a science instead of purely an art. This makes comedy seem less mysterious to me. I have been inspired to pursue humor and comedy writing thanks to this course. Thank you!

Verified Student

It was a pleasure taking this course from an instructor who obviously cares about her profession. Her writing style is as good as any I’ve ever read and she has an amazing ability to be able to explain herself and her subject matter in a clear and enjoyable way. Her critique of my homework assignments were well thought out and authoritative, I would be happy to learn more from Joanna.

Verified Student

I must confess that I was initially reluctant to enroll in this course primarily due to my age. I had used various forms of humor as a type of coping mechanism throughout my life, but I was not confident that I could keep pace with the coursework or the sharp, younger students in this class. With the encouragement of a twenty-something friend, I decided to enroll and am truly glad I did. This course was definitely worth every penny I invested in it and was a ton of fun! The light-hearted humor that you incorporated into each lesson chapter made the reading assignments all that more enjoyable.

Verified Student

Thank you, Joanna! This course was a wonderful surprise and far more than I expected. The assignments were tough, but a joy to complete. I did fall a little behind, but Joanna is very encouraging and never let me feel at a loss. A brilliant class that I have already raved about to others!

Verified Student

The Get Funny! course delivered much more than was promised and more than I expected. Joanna is an expert in several fields where creating and applying humor are paramount. I learned where comedians and humorists find their material and how they create and apply humor. I now have the skills to generate humorous inputs for various publications and other applications. I also learned ways to incorporate humor into my life, at home, at play, at work, and in almost any situation. Joanna shared her invaluable knowledge in her lessons and reviews of our assignments, both of which were punctuated with her delightful humor. The course was so much fun, I'm not sure it's legal. Waiting for each lesson was like waiting for Christmas, as each lesson was a gift from Joanna. I got up early every lesson day and peeked at the lesson. I couldn't wait to read the lesson and work on the assignment. Joanna spent a great deal of time carefully reviewing our work and constructing thoughtful and helpful comments.
