Teach your students to express themselves on the web

Grades 6-10 • 8 projects • HTML, CSS, JavaScript

This course serves as either an off-ramp from Vidcode’s JavaScript courses into traditional web development, or as a standalone course to teach your students how to make personalized, interactive websites. This course is filled with 8 projects, tutorials, answer keys, and discussion topics, to get your students creating on the web!
