This spring, students in America On Tech’s TECH360 program learned the fundamentals of web design and development from volunteer instructors and software engineers working at technology companies based in NYC. Over the course of 10 weeks, students learned the basics of HTML and CSS, developed their professional skill sets, and explored industry aligned coding tools.  For the final project, students were placed in teams of 2-4 and provided a mock small business client brief, along with mini lessons about being a technology consultant and pitching/presenting an idea or project. Students developed a website according to their mock small business client brief and each cohort had its own competition to determine a winner. Today we are featuring those winners in our blog! 
It’s safe to say that AOT’s programs were affected by the COVID-19 pandemic this semester. In March, all of our in-person classes were shifted to virtual sessions via Zoom.  This included our TECH360 program sessions. All of our materials were already hosted online and we expanded our use of the digital space by recording all live technical instructional sessions and posting them online for our students to access. Additionally, virtual office hours were added to the program to support students as they worked through their individual and team-based projects. Despite this shift, our students rose to the challenge and we couldn’t be more proud of their commitment and dedication to learning.  

​See the summaries of the winning student groups below. For more information on any of these projects, or to learn more about our programs, contact hello@americaontech.org.
