Coder World: Learn to Code
Project based learning. You will build and host your own website in the cloud, learn to collaborate with other developers online, and we will learn the fundamentals of programming by writing a small video game. You will be encouraged to build your online coding presence by sharing on social media what you are learning in class.
Coding Tools: Terminal, vscode, Git & GitHub, SourceTree, DBeaver and more
Coding Services: Amazon Web Services (AWS Cloud), Stack Overflow and more
Coding Languages: JavaScript, HTML and SQL and more
As part of the class, each student will purchase a domain name in class and sign up for an Amazon Web Services (AWS) account. This requires a credit card number and has a monthly cost (will probably be about $0.25/month based on what they will do in class.)
