About the Course

Thanks to a growing number of software programs, it seems as if anyone can make a webpage. But what if you actually want to understand how the page was created? There are great textbooks and online resources for learning web design, but most of those resources require some background knowledge. This course is designed to help the novice who wants to gain confidence and knowledge. We will explore the theory (what actually happens when you click on a link on a webpage?), the practical (what do I need to know to make my own page?), and the overlooked (I have the code, but how do I put it on the web to share with others?). Throughout the course there will be a strong emphasis on adhering to syntactic standards for validation and semantic standards to promote wide accessibility for users with disabilities. This course will appeal to a wide variety of people, but specifically those who would like a step-by-step description of the basics. There are no prerequisites for this course and it is assumed that students have no prior programming skills or IT experience. The course will culminate in a small final project that will require the completion of a very simple page with links and images. The focus of this course is on the basics, not appearance. You can see a sample final HTML page at https://example-site-1--wd4ehtml.repl.co/ . This is the first course in the Web Design For Everybody specialization. Subsequent courses focus on the marketable skills of styling the page with CSS3, adding interactivity with JavaScript and enhancing the styling with responsive design....

I really thought I know HTML, that changed when I took this course. I learned so many important things that goes hand in hand with HTML, accessibility. my confidence has increased with this course.

A very well adjusted course which will help new programmers to understand and practice HTML5 and it's many component. No better course to take when you're starting web designing. Thank you very much.

If there had been a working autograder for the last final project this course would have been worth it somehow.

What does that mean?

- The lectures provided valuable information.

- The quizzes generally made sense (in relation to the lectures).

- Learning how to code wasn't really possible.

Why is that?

- There is only one programming assignment.

- The autograder doesn't give any feedback at all why resp. where things go wrong. That's everything but good style (for software as well as for learning).

- Code snippets can't be tested individually. That's very bad behavior in programming.

- At the end working code that meets the teached rules is marked as wrong. You are lost without any clue.

So probably you can learn something. Unfortunately you can't possibly finish the course with a feeling of success.
