We'll need to learn this first, like learning how a house is built. First we'll understand what tags are and how they work. Then we'll see how HTML can be used not just to markup language, but create templates, organize page sections, and eventually be used with CSS for current technologies like Bootstrap and Responsive Design. Weeks 3-6 CSS Overlapping with HTML, we'll also begin learning CSS. If HTML is the structure and foundation of a house, then CSS is the curtains, wall color, fabrics, window treatments, etc. Get it? As we learn to use HTML to build pages, we'll use CSS to control how different areas look with colors, animations, line style, spacing/padding, and more. Our HTML/CSS efforts will culminate with the creation of a professional looking web page for the midterm. Weeks 7-15 The remainder of the semester will be dedicated to advanced topics such as, but not limited to: Graphical Web Development Tools Javascript and the Document Object Model Bootstrap and CSS3 CSS Animations Web Services Media Server-Side Programming Setting up an actual website with a URL and a host Our final project will be to create a multi-page website using forms, galleries, slideshow, social media feeds, and more. Accessibility Services for Students with Disabilities: CCV strives to mitigate barriers to course access for students with documented disabilities. To request accommodations, please Provide disability documentation to the Accessibility Coordinator at your academic center. https://ccv.edu/discover-resources/students-with-disabilities/ Request an appointment to meet with accessibility coordinator to discuss your request and create an accommodation plan. Once created, students will share the accommodation plan with faculty. Please note, faculty cannot make disability accommodations outside of this process. Academic Honesty: CCV has a commitment to honesty and excellence in academic work and expects the same from all students. Academic dishonesty, or cheating, can occur whenever you present -as your own work- something that you did not do. You can also be guilty of cheating if you help someone else cheat. Being unaware of what constitutes academic dishonesty (such as knowing what plagiarism is) does not absolve a student of the responsibility to be honest in his/her academic work. Academic dishonesty is taken very seriously and may lead to dismissal from the College. Course description details subject to change. Please refer to this document frequently.
