HTML

I think the best way to learn HTML is to just do it. I got the most out of the 1 hour we were allowed to experiment on assignment 2. I am glad we were given time to actually play with the html in class this week. It is so helpful to have the instructor in the class when we are suppose to be learning something Many questions can be answered that way with a lot less frustration.

Learning HTML has been very interesting. I downloaded Nvu and am learning how to use it. Of course it is much easier to use than straight HTML, but learning HTML has its purpose and I would love to be able to teach it to my students in the fall. I need to learn how to set up a link on the school website to each classroom’s web page. I think for the 8th graders last day of class next week I am going to introduce them to HTML even if they can’t get it on the Internet. I think some of them would really enjoy it.


Next year I plan on having the 8th graders create web pages for each of the classrooms and then do the maintenance on them if the teacher is not willing or able to do so. Many of the rooms will be able self sufficient and update the web page by themselves, but some will not.
