In this section, you will discover the resources we've provided to learn to create webpages in HTML5 and using Cascading Style Sheets.
Cascading Style Sheets is a style sheet language used for describing the presentation of a document written in a markup language like HTML. CSS is a cornerstone technology of the World Wide Web, alongside HTML and JavaScript. (Wikipedia)
First
It's important to have an environment you can run your code in, while coding. To meet this need, I've created a course in Khan Academy - Computer Programming. We won't complete all the sections. We will study the following section --> "Intro to HTML/CSS: Making Web Pages."
https://www.khanacademy.org/
The class code is --> EBZ3EXGM
Students create a user. You previously used an avatar and anonymous email account for Runescape Programming in Python. I have recorded these and know each student.
Alternatively, you can create creating an avatar and using an email account where your personal information is not compromised. ex. User Luke Skywalker & email UseTheForce@gmail
**If you need to create a new avatar/username**
Be sure Email me at jbleecker@sd57.bc.ca to let me know your **
1) username
2) actual identity
Once you sign in,
a) Work through each section.
b) Complete training by reading, coding the examples, completing challenges.
c) You will create a major assignment in stages. This will be a personal portfolio that profiles your technology skills. The assignment is coming soon! Note that each page will profile a different skill area with examples of what you can do. These skills do not need to be specific to this course. Skills with Blender, Programming, Web Design, Photoshop, Film, Photography, Digital Art, etc. are fair game.
A link is provided to Khan Academy.
Second
We've added links to W3Schools HTML. Think of this website as a place to look up syntax rules and run example code in an interactive window on the site. It's a great reference to have open while you're coding.
Third
You're going to learn a lot about colours on the web. So, we've created another link to W3 Schools colour selector. RBG, HEX, HSL. Oh my... here we go...
