Getting Started with Website Design and Development Workshop
Now booking! Suitable for Year 9 - Year 13 pupils (aged 13+)!Our new Getting Started with Website Design and Development Workshop is a great way to introduce your pupils to coding and web development.
We’ll focus on HTML, CSS and JavaScript throughout a full-day workshop.
At the end of the day, students will have a working website, which could be an online portfolio, a website about their hobbies and interests, or we could tie the challenge into another school module or topic!
It’s a hands-on, creative day, as pupils can create their own website with our support and even embed music, videos and games into their website! They’ll get to explore professional tools, learn about accessibility and more!
They will also receive notes and support guides from us so they are equipped to continue learning, designing and developing after the workshop.
HTML
HTML is the coding language that determines the structure of a website and the content. We’ll look at building a website that is responsive to different screen sizes, and we’ll show students how to build flexible layouts and format their code.
CSS
CSS determines what the website looks like. How big is the text? Do links get underlined? What colour is the background? How do the images look? We’ll spend time playing with the look and feel of the website, and focusing on design.
JavaScript
JavaScript is used to develop interactive elements for a website. We’ll take a look at some of the fundamentals behind JavaScript, developing some interactivity for their website.
Each school that books a coding workshop with us receives the source code after the workshop, allowing students to develop their work further after the session, with support from us. We’ll even upload their websites to the internet at the end of the day, so they can see them live, and share them with their family and friends!
We also provide support materials and some additional projects for you to try! We’ll help your pupils take their coding further, and we are happy to run follow-up sessions too.
In addition to providing you with follow-up lesson plans, and the source code for projects we create during our workshops, we can also provide online follow-up sessions, which is a super-cool and fun way for your pupils to stay engaged with coding and a great way for us to check-in and see how your pupils are doing and help them take coding further!
We run our Getting Started with Website Design and Development Workshop with pupils from Year 10 and up, including college and university students.
