Lesson framework

Describe why becoming a better learner is important.

CFU

Turn to your neighbor and describe why becoming a better leaner is important. 
Be prepared to share your discussion with the class.

Explain how to become a better learner using a three step process.

CFU

Write down what the three steps to becoming a better learner with a short definitions.
Be prepared to share your answer with the class.

Identify a few personal strengths regarding this process.

CFU

Write down a few personal strengths regarding this process.
Think about how you can leverage this strength to help you succeed in this course.

Identify at least one personal weakness regarding this process.

CFU

Write down a few personal weakness regarding this process.
Think about how you can be aware of this weakness so that it does not delay your progress.

Describe the 5 different primitive data types in JS.

CFU

With your neighbor, write down what the five different primitive data types of Javascript along with an example.
Be prepared to share with the class.

Use PEMDAS (parentheses, exponents, multiplication etc) to evaluate expressions.

CFU

What are the results of the following equations:

4 + 5 * 6

(4 + 5) * 6

6^2 + (5 - 3) / 2

(3 * 4)^2 /2

Use variables to store and re-store any and all primitive data types.

CFU

Write 5 variables that store all five different primitive data types.
Be prepared to share your answer with the class

Manipulate and target strings using js methods and targeting syntaxes.

CFU

Create a new variable name greet, and store the concatenation of the following variables:

const str1 = 'Hello'
const srt2 = 'World'

------------------------------------------------------------------

What does the following statements print:

const g = 'Galvanize'
console.log(g[0])
console.log(g[1])
console.log(g[g.length - 1])

Use booleans and numbers to evaluate logical operators.

CFU

What do the following expressions evaluate to:

8 > 5

8 < 5

8 <= 8

8 == 8

8 == '8'

8 === '8'

true && true

true && false

true || false

8 < 5 && 10 > 9

Combine logical operators to evaluate complex logical scenarios.

CFU

Combine 2 comparison operations chaining them using && or ||.
Create 4 expressions, 2 that evaluate to true, and 2 that evaluate to false

Describe type coercion and explain the difference between the == and the === operator.

CFU

With your neighbor, describe what type coersion is and show examples using the == and the === operator.
Be prepared to share with your answer with the class.
