Unit Title: Web Development Fundamentals Length of Unit: 98 online hours Focusing Lens(es) 1. Fundamentals 2. Vocabulary 3. Context Areas of Study 1. Security 2. HTML, CSS, and Javascript 3. Bootstrap 4. Jquery Content CS101 is a self-paced course that teaches the essential ideas of Computer Science for a zero-prior-experience audience. Computers can appear very complicated, but in reality, computers work within just a few, simple patterns. CS101 demystifies and brings those patterns to life, which is useful for anyone using computers today. The Front end development course will prepare the student to understand the building blocks of the web (HTML and CSS), layer on interactivity (JavaScript). Then, once those concepts are mastered the student will learn responsive design and accessibility. This will be complemented by a unit on libraries and frameworks with a specific emphasis on React Concepts Security in computing, what is computing, how are computers used, how does the Internet works, what is computer science.
