HTML Introduction

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. Topics covered include web development tools, text formatting, page formatting, images, lists, links, tables, introduction to CSS, xHTML, HTML validation, and limitations of HTML. 

JavaScript is a programming language that allows you to add a significant amount of functionality to what would otherwise be a static web page. You'll learn the fundamentals of event-driven programming, how to implement loops and control structures, and how to add compelling interactive features to your web pages.  

AUGUSTUS  LEARNING

In this capstone course, concepts are pulled from each of the core classes in the Web Design and Development Certificate Program to help participants learn the process of creating a professional website while working on their own web project. From assessing and creating a design document, to creating a wireframe, templates, drafts, and final versions of a website, participants will follow a structured design process to plan and build a professional website. Upon completion of this course, participants will be able to create a professional looking web site utilizing the skills learned in previous courses. This completed website can serve as an addition to the student's professional portfolio. Prerequisites: I&C SCI X471.03 Web Development with HTML, I&C SCI X471.04 JavaScript Programming, and at least one elective course in the Web Design and Development Certificate Program. This course is recommend to be taken at the end of the Web Design and Development Certificate Program.
