Why book 'Getting Started with Website Design and Development Workshop' with Chaos Created

Our Getting Started with Website Design and Development Workshop, led by real-world web developers, is a great way to introduce your pupils to HTML, CSS and JavaScript.

During this full-day workshop, the students will create their own website, or online portfolio. They will be led, by a professional web designer, through creating the structure and content of their website (HTML), implementing design (CSS) and building some simple interactivity (JavaScript).

At the end of the day, all students will have a working website, which we can optionally upload so they can view the site from home and share with family and friends, along with notes and support so they are equipped to develop their skills further.

Anything else?

What makes our workshops unique is that they are delivered by real-world app and games developers. Our games and apps have been featured on BBC Click. We aim to not just teach your students skills, but to inspire them to pursue coding further.

This particular workshop has been delivered in schools across the UK, and we regularly work with universities, including Imperial College Business School. During our workshops with universities, we will often create online portfolios for the students, so the end result is super useful, and it develops their knowledge of programming languages they will need in the real world.
