Learning web development through hands-on creation helps students understand HTML structure. Building a homepage allows them to express individuality while grasping basic coding concepts.
By engaging in project-based learning, students apply concepts of HTML in a meaningful context. This aligns with Bruner's CPA approach, where they construct knowledge through experimentation and reflection as they see their code come to life on the screen.
1. Open your text editor (like Notepad or VS Code). 2. Create a new file and save it as 'index.html'. 3. Write basic HTML code: set up '<html>', '<head>', and '<body>' tags. 4.

Open your file in a web browser to see your homepage live!
