2022 Program Objectives
A focus on analyzing advocacy websites, identifying and researching a cause, brainstorming the message students want to share about that cause, and creating an action item list for their audience to get involved. In addition, planning the visual design of the website using two new tools: a wireframe and a mockup.
We will explore the basics of HTML and its role in building a static web page and organiz and categorize content on a website. Additionally, styling the webpage using Cascading Style Sheets (CSS)!
We will explore how to make sure the student’s website looks great and adjust for different screen sizes like laptops, tablets, and mobile devices. The day will conclude with a team pitch presentation.
What to Expect:
Engage in conversations with industry speakers about key transformational technologies and their impact on our future.
