Our Web designing course is all about websites, because the web rocks! Our students will spend weeks designing and building their very own websites and get 'em published to the world by the end of the course. Importantly, kids will be introduced to Internet Safety and why cyber-safety matters, plus we'll learn the basics of how the internet works (wait, you mean that Facebook page lives out in the "cloud" somewhere?!). As usual, our Fridays are all about the demo, showing off the all cool website stuff the kids create!

COURSE DESCRIPTION

TEACHING PLATFORM

We use the "big three" languages of the web in this programe - HTML, CSS, and for advanced kids, Javascript. These three technologies make up the basis of all websites around the world, so are some of the most well known languages there are! Unlike some other classes, we focus on the core technology code base, instead of using a platform to quickly create a beautiful site without needing to code. The Coder School also provides each students their very own public place to host their page(s), so anyone around the world can see the cool stuff they've done with just a URL!

Students will learn all about how websites are coded from scratch, and how all websites everywhere are based on the exact same languages that the kids will be using. Some of the concepts kids may learn and practice include: Basics of internet safety High level understanding of the Internet Architecture Basic usage of HTML tags like ,

, Understanding of how CSS affect websites What Javascript is, and for more advanced kids, a basic start and More!
