About the class

The goal of this class is to gain a solid understanding of the foundational building blocks of web development, and to use those building blocks in different ways.  Emphasis is placed on writing clear, concise code that meets current web standards.  We will explore different ways of structuring page content and how to write the code to implement it.

Students will work on creating their own personal website and interactive components.  The specific projects worked on are decided by the class as a group, and will be something all students can accomplish.

Everything will be coded from scratch using a simple text editor.

No prior programming experience or knowledge is required, or expected - this is a great place to start!

 

For ages 12 & up.

About Think Space Studio 

Our Westchester, NY based enrichment classes for middle school and high school teens teach the fundamentals of computer programming in a casual (but high-energy!), hands-on, small group environment. We focus on small achievable projects and goals to drive the learning experience - from making lightning, fire and optical illusions to creating games, puzzles, and programs - writing the code is never an end in and of itself, but is always a step on the way to making awesome things!

We teach the basic building blocks of computer programming from the ground up, using real-world text based programming languages like Java, JavaScript, Python, Swift, and HTML/CSS. Along the way, we invariably touch on general Computer Science concepts like binary & hexadecimal numbers, coding style, computer architecture, data structures, and a lot more.

Class sizes are intentionally kept small to encourage participation, and to allow the students to learn at a good pace while still being able to receive 1 to 1 help.
