Intro to JavaScript: Drawing and Design is a 7-week Learning Circle where you will learn how to use the JavaScript programming language and the ProcessingJS library to create fun drawings and animations on Khan Academy. A Learning Circle is a lightly facilitated study group where participants can meet with a group of like-minded people to take a free online course together. 

 This Learning Circle is intended to introduce true programming beginners to the basic concepts of programming with JavaScript and ProcessingJS. No previous programming experience is necessary, but a basic knowledge of computers is required. You will watch the lessons in class together and complete the activities as individuals or in small groups. No additional coursework is required outside of class unless you are unable to attend a session. Participants should plan on attending each week of the course.

 

If you are interested in taking this course, please register here. Registration is limited and new participants will not be accepted after the first class. Dates and times for the Learning Circle are listed below:
