Digital Storytelling for the Web

Catalog description

This course provides students with a critical foundation in telling digital stories through web-based languages HTML and CSS. The course focuses on providing students a foundation in how the web works, the information organization and logic of a web site, the ways HTML works to structure web pages, and the ways CSS works to style those pages. Students learn to write HTML and CSS, and design story-based web pages through local coding practices and processes, thinking carefully and expansively about how people access web-based information, and how to ensure that everyone, regardless of device, bandwidth, or ability, can access that information. Through hands-on, critical making practices, students gain important skills and knowledge in conceptualizing, testing, designing, writing, and coding web-based narrative.
