A week-long website development summer camp that teaches fundamental skills like HTML, CSS, & Javascript, while also introducing broader concepts and principles of the Internet. By the end of the workshop, participants will create personal websites on the topic of their choosing! Students will present their websites on the last day of class and will have the opportunity to receive feedback from UBC Faculty and Staff.
This workshop was organized in partnership with Coding Pals – a non-profit organization run by high school students based in Vancouver, BC that offers computer programming lessons at zero cost to local youth.
