Overview
The Build a Webpage Challenge will introduce Trainees to the world of web development. This Challenge is part of the Presentation and Programming Series. Most businesses now have an online presence of some sort. So, it is important that Trainees learn the skills of Presentation using this format.
Trainees will take a look at the history of the internet. Then they will meet two STEM Heroes, Tim Bernes-Lee, the inventor of HTML. Our second Hero is Google. We made an exception in this Challenge in that our Hero is a company. Trainees will then take HTML Bootcamp and learn the basics of HTML coding.
They will then continue to work through the STEM Training Process by Planning their webpage, Making their webpage, Tinkering with it, Reflecting on their page, Sharing their page, and then finally Improving it.
They will be able to use their Trainee Portfolio to work through the Challenge and record their work.
The software we recommend for this Challenge is Brackets which is free to download and easy to use. They will be able to see in real-time what their page would look like without having to make it live on the web.
All our Challenges are created in such a way that Trainees of any age can use them. Our test Trainee group ranges in age from 7 years old to 14 years old. However, we have had 5-year-olds successfully complete Challenges with assistance and even a few parents joined their Trainees to learn to code! We recommend simplifying the task for younger Trainees and helping them with the Challenge Kits. For older students, we recommend that they go more in-depth and that their finished solution is of a higher standard and more detailed. We have also taken into consideration different learning styles. So the Portfolio and Lessons can be adapted to each Trainee’s needs. Ultimately, our program is about working through the process. And you are never too young or too old to learn that skill.
For this Challenge, Trainees over 11 years old should be able to complete it with minimal assistance. Younger Trainees will require assistance.
