What students will build
Each student builds a beginner-friendly personal portfolio website with parent-approved privacy settings. Websites may include an about section, interests or creative work, and project examples. Sensitive personal information is never published.
Student safety
Student safety and privacy are built into the program. Parent or guardian approval is required before participation. Personal portfolio websites are private or unlisted by default unless a parent or guardian chooses otherwise. Students are guided not to publish sensitive personal information, exact addresses, school schedules, private contact details, or unsafe identifying information.
