Weeks at LEAP

Week 1 in LCLC

On week 1, was the start of the summer session. We started off learning
about programming through prezi presentations. Along with that we watched a video about what
programming was and how important it is. We learned that not all programmer's
look like the traditional "nerds" and "geeks". Some famous rappers, athletes, and models
got their degree in programming. The programming language that we
are learning this summer is HTML, which stands for Hyper Text Markup Language,
and it is used to make websites. We used Codecademy.com to get used to working with HTML.
On Codecademy.com, we learned how to code using tags, and how to debug our code. This meant we looked
for our mistakes in our code.We used HTML cheat sheets, that is, sheets that provided the HTML tags and the descritpion of what each tag is used for, to get familiar with the tags.
