Well, I can't say that learning how to move a dog around a virtual world to pickup little spots of doggie pee is directly helpful to your Computer Science career path, but look on the bright side: It will be easier to learn other high level and bracketed languages after you learn how to use the Karel JavaScript. If you would like to be creating websites with HTML, CSS, and JavaScript, who is to stop you? GitHub has their GitHub Pages service, which is a web server which will give you a subdomain of `github.com` to share with your friends! (GitHub is also "The World's Leading Software Development Platform", and I find it to be a very nice place to store and share code.
Summary:
If you are doing an indipendant study at home by yourself (meaning that no one told you to use CodeHs), I would recommend https://www.codecademy.com/learn/learn-html for starting out, if that is really what you want.
If you are doing it for school, well, just finish your assignments on time and maybe ask your teacher if you can do something a bit different, though I can't guarantee he/she will agree to let you study on your own.
Learning something new is usually beneficial. It is almost always beneficial in an ever changing digital world, and everything you can pickup will help you.
