| This course is organised into two projects – programming and web development. You will then learn the foundations of programming with Python - an extremely relevant skill in the digital world we live in. In the web development module you will learn about what makes a successful website and then design and create a website using HTML and CSS, integrating modern web design principles and images edited or created in Adobe Photoshop. The development of your site will be managed using an agile methodology. | A mixture of internal and external assessment will be offered in this course | Nil | $20 for materials and printing | Year 12 Digital Technologies | NCEA Level 1 | Mr Ny |
