Expanded Course Description
CS 110 is about the digital world, the study of computer-based information systems, and computational thinking.
Computational Thinking (CT) is a way of solving problems that draws on concepts fundamental to computing. In the information age, CT is a requisite skill for everyone, not just computer scientists. From logical thought to programming, database concepts to website architecture, information privacy and security to networking and multimedia, CS 110 is designed to help you understand how computational thinking can be used to transform information into knowledge in your field of study. CS 110 helps you develop computing capabilities suited to all careers in the 21st century.
Students create websites using a project-based, hands-on approach to web development. Students learn the basic HTML elements, and how to deploy them to produce visually appealing web pages. This part of the course emphasizes on page layout, user interface elements and mechanisms, and responsive web design.
CS 110 is the first course in the CIT minor, and serves as a recommended prerequisite for CS 111
