Description

This course provides a broad introduction to coding, programming and web design through four widely recognised technologies and coding approaches. You will begin with HTML and HTML fundamentals, learning how page structure, text, links, forms and other content are organised. The course then introduces PHP and core PHP concepts, explaining how server-side programming can be used for dynamic web applications and data processing. Javascript is covered as a key language for browser interaction, with Javascript fundamentals, events, functions and dynamic page behaviour, while Python introduces Python programming through a clear approach to logic, variables, control structures, functions, data structures and common problem-solving techniques. Alongside the technical topics, the course explains how these areas connect so you can develop a more complete understanding of web development.

The course is structured to give beginners a solid foundation without assuming advanced prior knowledge. You will strengthen your understanding of coding terminology and coding practices, programming logic, web design concepts and web design terminology while exploring how HTML, PHP, Javascript and Python are used in different parts of a digital project.
