SOFT7008 Week 01 Lecture

While we were waiting for everyone to arrive I gave out a HTML exercise.

For this module should should already know

• some HTML
• how to program

I spoke a little bit about the inverted classroom model.  Note everybody watched the videos in advance.  But that's not a big surprise

I asked students to install XAMPP on their machine if they had them handy.  We looked at how to view html file and PHP files via localhost. The files must be in htdocs.

We looked at variables in PHP and string manipulation.

Students did an exercise on variable substitution in PHP. That's tricky.

We looked at the assessment for the module.

We didn't continue on the the labs at 2015. We all went home.

I asked students to watch the following videos before next week's facetime.  We'll see how that works and whether it frees up time for coding.
