SOFT6007 Class 03.2 & 03.3 & 03.4

03.2
Students worked on getting the nested list exercise finished. This is tricky, but worthwhile.

Students who were completed and had their work checked by me went for a coffee break.

03.3






I talked about ASCII, code pages, and HTML entities.

I asked student who were finished their nested lists to take a look at the tables video.

03.4

We looked at tables. I talked students through sample page 3

I asked student to code their timetables in HTML. Not all finished that today.

SOFT6007 Class 02.2 & 02.3

Students worked on the nested list exercise. That took a bit longer than I expected. This is a tricky exercise, but it illustrates the structure of HTML very well.

Some students missed class before and so I referred them to an online video on lists.

If you missed the class on lists or need a recap this video might help.

SOFT6007 Class 02.1

I talked about how the origins of the Internet have an impact on how it works today.

I explained that http is just one of many protocols.

We followed the steps involved from clicking on a link to displaying a webpage.

I gave out a  handout on HTML entities. But we didn't discuss it.

SOFT6007 Week 01 Recap

Good job guys!

I asked a lot of you in the labs this week, but I was keen for us to make a start. Don't worry if the Nested List was a bit tricky just give it some time over the weekend. The important thing about HTML is the structure. It's all about the structure.

Get used to using the validator at validator.w3.org

We looked at
structure of a HTML document
strong and em [51]
links - a tag (relative & absolute paths) [77-84]
images - omg tag [99-100]
unordered lists [66]
ordered lists [65]
nested lists [68]


you can find more in the text book at the page [numbers] I've listed

Please find out about
Definition lists [67]

If you haven't got the nested list sorted please work on it over the weekend.



This video about using images in web pages might be useful.

SOFT6007 Class 01.2 01.3 01.4 N

HTML
Links
Images
Order lists
Unordered lists
Nested lists

I gave students a nested list exercise but it was a bit tricky

SOFT6007 Class 01.3 & 01.4 W

We looked at
Links, relative paths
Lists, nested lists
Doctype
Validator


I gave students an exercise on nested lists. But I think it was a bit soon for that. I think they need more time to digest it,

SOFT6007 This Week

I will be in the labs this week in case people have any questions or anothing they would like to go over.


But you are not exected to go unless you want to.


There will be no SOFT6007 lecture on Tuesday.


If I don't see you in the meantime good luck with your assessments and enjoy the break. If there were any modules that you struggled with this semester, do a bit of study during the break so that you are not behind when you come back.
