Summary: The District's Educational Services Department has made recommendations for updates in our district-wide course catalog. We are submitting a revised Career Technical Education course: Website Development. This course meets the UC/CSU A-G Requirement “G.”

Computer science is an ever-changing field. Web technologies change especially quickly, and the industry has changed dramatically since this course was originally adopted. This course needs to be updated. As a result, to remain relevant and to maintain articulation agreements with our college partners.

This class can be taken individually or as part of the Computer Science Pathway. Students in the pathway should take the classes in this order: Intro to Digital Media, Computer Game Design, Website Development.

This course teaches students the basic skills needed to create a Web page, emphasizing the Hypertext Markup Language (HTML), Cascading Style Sheets (CSS), Javascript, and some lite cyber security concepts. Students are also introduced to the Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP), Uniform Resource Locators (URLs), how to write code using an integrated development environment (IDE), and publishing to a Web server using the file transfer protocol (FTP).

The Director of Curriculum and Instruction and the Assistant Superintendent of Educational Services has approved the above course.
