Students will be given small assignments within the class which are usually finished during the class. The most effective way for the majority of students to learn how to program is by practicing. Most of class time is spent by students typing their own code, with the teacher checking work and troubleshooting errors with students.Assessment
There is no official assessment; however, students complete several tasks throughout the course. The end of the course involves a website created by the student about themselves. (Students may opt for a different topic if they choose.)Class Experience
Web Site Design Using html and css (Unit 1) is a course for middle to high school aged students to learn the basics of web design. In addition to video chat and screen sharing, we will be using repl.it as a coding platform. I use repl.it in my physical classrooms as well. It provides a 100% online code editor with real-time feedback. Students can immediately run their code to see what the web site looks like. repl.it also provides the teacher the ability to assign classwork and share code with others in real time. Each student will be required to create a free account on repl.it and join my classroom for access to class material. I will walk students through this process during the first session. This is the first unit in a three unit course. Students do not need to continue on in the course unless they wish to learn more about web design. Unit 1 covers the following topics: intro to repl.it html text html internal and external links html images creative commons and copyright html lists and tables "about me" website project A typical session involves several mini-lessons. I will share my screen in order to show students a new topic. Afterwards students will attempt to use the newly learned topic on their own repl.it screen with guidance from me when needed. Once all students have mastered a topic the class will move on to the next mini-lesson. If all students master every topic for the session we will move on to topics from the next session. If we reach the final session with extra time I will introduce some extended topics or topics the students request.
Learning Goals
Students will learn the basics of html in order to create text, links, and images on a website. In specific, students will learn about html tags, paragraph tags, header tags, metadata tags, text styling tags, link tags, image tags, creative commons and copyright laws for using media created by others, ordered and unordered list tags, and table tags.
Other Details
Parental Guidance
Students are expected to create a free account at repl.it and join my classroom in order to take this course. Repl.it is student friendly. I use this resource in my physical classrooms as well. This does mean your student has access to code written by others, and any posts made by those users. You may read more at repl.it if you need more information. I will walk students through this process during the first session.
