The Internet and Web are already an integrated part of our daily lives. But few know how it works, and the power it could give us. In this series of classes, we introduce students to the inner workings of the Internet and world wide web, from building web pages, and understanding how the Internet works, to learning more about the layers of business players around the Internet economy. Get started building your first web pages with our kids' website coding lessons.

Web development is the branch of computer science focused on creating websites and the technologies that power them. When you browse the internet—whether on YouTube, Amazon, Gmail, or countless other sites—you’re using websites created by web development technologies.
For middle and high school students that want to build websites for school projects, explore coding as a hobby, prepare for internships, or even learn about cybersecurity, web development provides a strong foundation. Understanding how websites are built also promotes digital literacy—helping students move from being passive users of technology to active creators.
HTML, CSS, and Javascript are all critical technologies for web development. Without going into too much technical details: -** HTML (HyperText Markup Language**): Think of this as the skeleton of a web page. It organizes the content (text, images, links, etc.).
Together, these three technologies form the foundation of modern websites.
Generally, students in 6th grade and up can start learning web development, but age is just one of considerations and readiness depends on the individual. For middle school students, we recommend beginning with Scratch coding (a visual programming language) and then moving on to Python before tackling web development. This path makes the learning experience smoother, more engaging, and likely leading to better learning outcomes.
In this Build Your Web class, your child will dive into the exciting world of web development! They'll learn the core building blocks: HTML (for structuring content), CSS (for making things look beautiful), and JavaScript (for adding interactive magic). Beyond just coding, they'll also get a peek behind the curtain to understand how the internet and the World Wide Web actually work, and even learn about the different businesses that make up the internet economy. It's all about getting hands-on and building their very first web pages!
Depending on your child’s goals, the following classes complement Build Your Web class: -** WIX Web Design**: Great for quickly creating beautiful websites without needing to code in HTML/CSS/Javascript, perfect for projects that focus mostly on content with little highly specialized interactions
Increasingly, websites integrate AI capabilities such as chatbots, recommendation systems, or personalized experiences. JavaScript has libraries that allow developers to add AI features, but typically students learn the fundamentals of artificial intelligence separately before incorporating it into their web projects. We have several great classes on Artificial Intelligence for kids and teens. Check them out!
Even though the content of different websites can vary greatly, the foundational building blocks of these websites have a lot of commonalities. A web framework (WF) includes a collection of pre-written code, libraries, tools, and best practices designed to make it a lot more efficient for developers to develop websites.
React, for example, is one of the most popular frameworks for building the front end—the part of a website that users see and interact with in their browser. We don't cover React officially in our classes at this time. We do have teachers that are React experts. Email us at support@createandlearn.us if you are interested.
