On Monday February 13 we had the CTE Expo where we were talking to freshman and convincing them to join the Web Design Academy. This was our last CTE expo so we were doing our very best to bring in freshman to the Academy. What we did is we grab a freshman and brought them to a computer and show them the work we did in senior year so far. Once we showed them I talked to them about the code I used to create, I explained to them what HTML, CSS, and JavaScript is and how it works. I also explained to them what they will do in sophomore year what they will learn and the program they will use, which are Photoshop CS6 InDesign CS6 and what to expect in sophomore year. Then I explained What they will be doing in junior year and how they will be introduce to HTML Code and work in TextEdit and then move on to Dreamweaver CS6 and I told them that after that they will learn about CSS and how to apply CSS to their previous work to make it look a little better, I also explained to them that they will use Illustrator to create their first ever video game in the computer, Finally I explained to them what they will learn in senior year which is JavaScript and how they will use their HTML, CSS and now JavaScript knowledge and combine that to make projects and labs. I told them the commitment it takes to be in the CTE academy and how it will be worth it because you will leave with a CTE diploma.
