What's Going On This Week? February 17th through February 21st

Programming the Web 1
This week we will be finishing up lesson 3 on marking up text with HTML and starting lesson 4 on
links.  Students are considered "on pace" if they have completed all projects and review questions though lesson 3 by Monday.

This week we will focus on file structure.  We'll learn how to create links to existing web pages, how to link to other pages that we'll create, and how to link within a document.  This will be the last week that we use the "Notepad" program to create web pages.  We will then move on to the industry-standard "Dreamweaver".

Programming the Web 2
This week we'll finish up our forms lesson.  We'll add a quick form to our portfolio page and learn how we can collect the results.  We'll also take a look at a few more CSS tips and tricks.



Fundamentals of Programming
This week we'll be working on our partner "SoundBoard" project.  Students will pair up to create a app that integrates sound, video and images.  This is a creative project, so students will have the freedom to choose their school-appropriate subject matter for the project.  Since we'll be looking for images, sound and video to incorporate into our app we'll need to talk about copyright.  We want to make sure that any apps we create are made with original or royalty-free images, text, and video.
