What you learn
 
By the end of the introductory course, you can create a Web site consisting of text and graphics. Here's what you learn on the course:
  • basic HTML (the simple language in which Web pages are created)
  • how to insert text, graphics, and photos onto a web page
  • how to lay out web pages
  • how to capture images for the Web (using a digital camera and a scanner)
  • how to edit images for the Web (using image editing software)
  • how to transfer the Web pages you create onto the Internet
  • how to use an HTML editor (a piece of software that makes writing Web pages quicker)
 
What you produce

During the course, one of the exercises we'll do involves creating pages for a actual Web site (normally for a local community project). You'll also create a short personal 'home page' which will end up as your 'contributor's profile' for the community web site. There is, of course, no obligation to publish anything on the web you don't want to be published!
