Students in grades 7-12 can spend several days this summer learning how to develop and maintain web pages at the Web Camp offered by the University of Tennessee at Martin.
The three-day intensive camp is set for July 13-15 on the UT Martin campus.
Students will learn about generating web pages with content management systems such as WordPress, using HTML, CSS, Java Script, Microsoft Asp.Net and Silverlight. Each day will be divided into morning and afternoon sessions with both lecture and hands-on activities.
The registration fee is $165 and includes lunch in Skyhawk Café on campus, a flash drive and a T-shirt. Bob Bradley and Dr. Bryan Foltz will be instructors.
