Fantastic grade for TMA 2 – hooray!
I got 94% for TMA 2 – one of my best grades ever! I thought it was really hard, especially developing the XML Schema. But I guess I must have kept on at it enough and made some lucky deductions about what things meant. Also, when I made references to the security considerations covered at the beginning of Block 2, those seemed to be well received.
I’m still not entirely clear on how DOM, SAX and XSLT relate to each other, but hopefully that will become clearer later as I do more of the practical work.
I think in this section of the course I have really benefitted from having just completed the certificate in Web Applications Development beforehand – it covers some similar ground, though from more of a technical development perspective and with different programming languages and technologies.
