SOFT6008 DWEB2 Class 06 & 07

Students continued working on the coins exercise.

This took longer than I was anticipating. We will pick up the pace a bit next week. My main goal for this week was to get students thinking again and to get used to debugging.

I feel that a few students need to brush up on their programming skills before proceeding with this module. All students should complete this exercise by the end of the week.

SOFT6007 ITM1 Classes 06 & 07

We looked at headings, strong, em, bold, and italics

I gave students a nested list exercise to code in HTML.

It didn't go very well. Students might like to watch (the end of) the recording of today's lecture, and the other video on lists, before the next class.

I gave students a nested list exercise to code in HTML

For those that were finished quickly I e-mailed a second similar exercise

SOFT6008 COM2.B Classes 05 & 06

We looked at alert, confirm, and prompt boxes; and loops.

I asked students to write a program that prompts the user for a number of cent, and outputs the minimum number of coins needed to make that change.

SOFT6007 Class 05

I tried to explain how the Internet's history is responsible for its architecture.

We looked at lists in HTML

SOFT6007 Class 06 DWEB

SOFT6008 Class 03 COM2.B

Students worked on exercises we started earlier during the week

SOFT6007 Class 03 Lab ITM

I asked students to make sure they competed the work we began in the last class. I went student-to-student to make sure everyone was OK.

SOFT6007 Class 04 Lecture

This was mostly a pep-talk about making the most of college.

But we did talk a little bit about the module and the assessment.

SOFT6008 COM2.B Class 01

I asked students to sign-up Google+ soon.

We looked at some JavaScript. We made a page that used a different greeting depending on the time of day.
We looked at how to generate random numbers in JavaScript and how to build up an img tag in a string. The nested quotes are tricky.

In the next class students will make a page that displays a different image depending on the time of day, and they will play with and extend the New Orleans example.

SOFT6007 Some useful online classes

A bit old, but still worth a look.

HTML basics

Some points on including images in web pages. Don't forget that an img tag must include alt, width, and height attributes.

SOFT6007 Class 01 & 02 Lab A

We wrote a basic HTML page that included links and images. I asked students to experiment and add to the page, but not to use new tags.

I asked students to check out each other on Google+ and to get to know those students around them I explained how G+ circles work.

SOFT6007 (DWEB1) Class 01

We spent the class dealing with timetable issues. It's all a bit complicated.

SOFT6008 COM2.A Class 01 & 02 Lab

I discussed the objectives of the module, got students to sign up to Google+ and showed them this blog.

We looked at some JavaScript.
