In this course, students will participate in technical workshops that expand their skill in hand-coding HTML5 and CSS3, with a focus on creating a complete multi-page responsive website and uploading it to a live web server via FTP. In addition to reviewing best practices for responsive web development, students will be introduced to advanced interactive and animation techniques, including JavaScript. Because web designers and developers must constantly update their skills as technology evolves, students will be encouraged to take on coding challenges that require independent learning above and beyond the topics covered by the instructor. Additionally, students will learn how designers and developers work together on larger web development projects.
