Did you know that building a website can be a great launching pad into virtual and augmented reality? Many libraries are doing Hour of Code and website building activities as an introduction to the wonderful world of coding. But what comes next? What are our goals for learning technology in the future? This webinar will provide you with the following:
- A brief overview of what augmented and virtual reality are, and how they are used
- Some possible roadmaps to start with website development skills (HTML, CSS, Javascript, design, etc.)
- Ways to build off of these web skills to launch into VR and AR
- Some examples of what can come next
This webinar is geared towards the curious and beginner/intermediate coders. It’s time to build a strong foundation for future tech skills. Discover what’s out there.
