Web Development with HTML (Section 1) I&C SCI X471.03  (2)

A required course in the Web Design and Development Specialized Studies Program.
Hypertext Markup Language (HTML) is used to render all web applications from the simplest to the most complex. Web development tools such as Dreamweaver and FrontPage allow users to design a web page visually and then convert the design into HTML statements. While an entire web page can be designed this way, situations that require customization or special functionality usually require the developer to work directly with individual HTML statements. So, it is important to know how HTML works. This course introduces HTML "building blocks" and allows participants to build a website step-by-step. Prerequisites: Excellent analytical skills; must enjoy using computers and have a knack for figuring things out on the computer. This course is conducted through our online course management system. In addition, there are three scheduled WebEx sessions.
