The instructor will present a disciplined approach to software design and coding with students working to achieve mastery level of multiple languages used in interactive design such as HTML5, CSS, XML, JavaScript, and more. Students will learn about writing, markup, and coding of Web sites while gaining theoretical knowledge about current practices and standards of Web informational design. This will prepare students for the daily demands and obligations of the work environment and emphasize the importance of adherence to copyright laws and regulations for Web content. Using a practical hands-on approach, Web Development & Design students will develop Web sites and manage content using industry recognized tools.
