In this course, students will learn how to create a web based application using fundamental HTML, CSS, and Javascript and using checkboxes with logical operators. HTML and CSS are the foundation of the web. So, they're also the foundation for taking tech skills to the next level. Having a handle on the fundamentals will make learning another programming language like Javascript much easier. Understanding conditional statements and how to render data is essential no matter which language your student is pursuing. This project is a fun and interactive way to display those conditional statements. This class will show and explain how to create a basic HTML layout, style it with CSS, and then use Javascript to manipulate the state of objects with conditional statements. I will also give out a challenge after every class so students can experiment and grow their knowledge. By the end of the course, students will have the knowledge of how to create a basic web based application using HTML, CSS, and Javascript to add more checkboxes with more conditional statements. We play Kahoot to warm up to HTML, CSS, and JavaScript topics so students will need access to that site. Students should be able to type on a keyboard and have some coding knowledge. This lesson will require a computer with internet access and the ability to navigate to CodeSandbox.io for a shared coding environment.
Learning Goals
-Basic HTML Layout with markdown sections for titles, body paragraph, and interactive buttons.
-Basic CSS Styling applying background colors, text colors, element location, and interactive animations.
-Basic Javascript creating variables, adding event listeners, crafting functions, and displaying data from the DOM.

Teacher expertise and credentials
Howdy! My name is Chris and I personally believe they should be teaching coding languages in our classrooms. The courses I teach focus on interactivity and building on programming fundamentals. It's so important to me that students get the opportunity to create something unique during our time together. My classes will always endeavor to have a sense of humor and while producing applications that lead to greater understanding of not only the computer language, but also the actions we take while playing games. This approach means students are not only entertained, but really remember the underlying aspects of the lesson, and most importantly, are able to apply them to new challenges.
