In this class, students will work their way through a series of projects, relying on documentation to figure out how to code and style a webpage using HTML and CSS and how to make webpages interactive using JavaScript. The teacher will serve as guide and coach, delivering short lessons or engaging students in activities to further students’ big picture understanding of what they are doing. Students will also practice encryption and other digital security techniques and work in small groups to research how their data is used commercially. As a final project, students will build websites for their classmates to “hack.”
