242068_sAs a 21st century learner we need to be able to read and write on the internet. Throughout first semester a portion of your time has been spent in learning code via codeacademy.

First quarter –  “Intro to HTML”, Second quarter – “Learn CSS” and “Make a website”

Grading is based on completion of these courses. A percentage grade will be applied for work completed.

Additional programs, if the three required courses are completed “Introduction to JavaScript”, “Introduction to jQuery”, “Learn Java” and “Learn C++”.

These are beginners courses. No previous knowledge is required. Log into courses out side of class to work on projects. We are in this together!
