Final Project

🌟 Final Project Phase – Spring 2025

The Final Project is the highlight of the semester and an essential part of the learning journey at ReDI. During this phase, learners apply the skills they’ve developed to create a personal or team project that showcases their knowledge in HTML & CSS.

🚀 About the Project Phase

The project phase begins after the core curriculum is completed.

Learners will:

• Work individually or in small groups (up to 3 people)

• Choose their own project topic with teacher guidance

• Build a working website or feature relevant to the course

💡 Goal: Apply skills in a hands-on, creative way while developing a portfolio piece that supports future learning or job applications.

🧑‍💻 Project Requirements

Each project must include:

• A code-based solution using HTML & CSS

• A presentation and a live demo (showing a working website)

💡Final Project Ideas

Students choose their own project topic with teacher guidance. Project types may include:

• A personal website

• A thematic landing page

• A community-focused mini project

• Anything aligned with the course content and realistic for the timeframe

• Prior Projects
