Course Summary:

Developing Web Applications With C# -- Over the past 10 years the Internet has been transformed from primarily an assortment of static web pages to complex collections of dyamically generated web pages with content tailored to specific visitors and combining audio, video and graphics. Much of this richer user experience has been made available by the development of server side scripting such as ASP (Microsoft) and JSP (Sun).

Not only is the content which is now available to users more interesting, more compelling and more targeted, but the speed at which developers can generate this superior content has also increased dramatically. Instead of hard coding numeric information into static web pages, today's technology allows web pages to be generated on the fly with data drawn from a database. Not only is this approach far more reliable (accurate), but also the time required to update this information is greatly reduced.

With the release of .NET Version 2.0 in November 2005, Microsoft also issued the most recent update of its ASP technology, now called ASP.NET. This course will provide a comprehensive survey of ASP.NET with a view to the Microsoft Certification Exam 70-315.

Microsoft has a good summary of the answers to the question Why ASP.NET? which includes higher developer productivity, faster performance, greater reliability and easier deployment.
