Can you code it? Yes, you can!
Join us for an introduction to coding with Sarah Dinn. Through this interactive “code-along” workshop, Sarah will guide you through building your first code-based project and demonstrate the applications and benefits of having HTML and CSS in your toolkit. Whether you need to engage with programmers, counsel clients about communications online, or even build your own website, your overall skill-set will be enhanced when you further your understanding of how to interact with computers.
In addition to boosting your computer literacy, we hope to pique your interest to learn more about code; Sarah will provide a laundry list of resources should you like to take additional introductory coding classes, more intensive courses, independent learning tools, casual online coding games and applications, as well as general resources to support your next learning journey.
Further to our interactive session with Sarah, Dr. Alex Sevigny, APR, will offer brief commentary on the latest academic research related to public relations and information technology. Alex is leading some of this research through his role at McMaster University.
About Sarah:
Sarah is a Toronto-based front-end web developer and works supporting curriculum that develop future skills in technology. Among great company and even better conversation, she values clean, semantic language, responsive design, accessibility for all, and an awesome board game on a Friday night. When not learning about the tech ecosystem, you can find Sarah hiking High Park with her mild mannered husband, spirited toddler and less than impressed dog, Cliffy.
