In this course, students will learn how to create a web based application using fundamental HTML, CSS, and JavaScript and interacting with an API. 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. APIs, or application program interfaces, are vital tools for businesses in all industries. They allow the capabilities of one computer program to be used by another. This class will show and explain how to create a basic HTML layout, style it with CSS, and then use JavaScript to connect to an API that delivers content to our web based application. 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 display data from a public API. This lesson will require a computer with internet access.
-Basic HTML Layout with markdown sections for titles, body paragraph, and interactive buttons.
-Intermediate CSS Styling applying background colors, text colors, element location, and interactive animations.
-Intermediate Javascript creating variables, adding event listeners, crafting functions, and displaying data from the DOM.

I have more than a decade of teaching experience including the last five years teaching online. I've also trained and worked as a full stack web developer over the last several years and am happy to bring together my two expertise to help your student. =)
