About This Course

A companion to learning the code: this course is about making a web page that looks good and is easy to read. It covers layout, spacing, choosing colours that work together, and why the most readable pages are usually the simplest ones.

Students redesign a page of their own and can see the difference immediately, which is the most convincing lesson in design there is.

Suitable for Key Stage 3 and a natural follow-on from Build Your First Website.

Has some previous experience. But wanted to further develop this knowledge and chose to do it thoroughly. So this course definitely feels right to me.
