Day 2
I don’t anticipate that I’ll knock out a chapter a day studying for the SCWCD exam, but the first two chapters of Head First Servlets & JSP have been good, solid, review of stuff I know pretty well.
I found myself breezing through the code magnet puzzle writing a simple servlet and associated web.xml
.
The puzzles and sidebars through out the chapter (and even the graphics) have been really good cues for reinforcing the material and make the book fun to read. I find myself scribbling a note or a “supplemental” bad joke in the margins. All part of meta-cognition.
Okay, I’m starting to sound like a HF fan-boy…but have you seen this series? I’m genuinely impressed.
