What are the prerequisites for the course? Do they already know HTML? CSS? Will there be other courses after this one?

Definitely teach about accessibility, standards compliance, and the necessity of bending to the browsers your audience uses.

Web development, or web design?

Development could mean code ignoring the front-end design to the OP.

I've always thought of development as a big picture kind of thing. Programming is the back-end and design is the front-end, while development is a perfect harmony somewhere inbetween.

This would be targeted for CS students without any prior knowledge on web development.
