We take a holistic approach to designing and building websites. We build a web page as the first exercise in class and we progressively build more feature rich pages and sites as the class progresses. This course is not software specific. It can be completed with just a text editor. The instructor will use Dreamweaver in code view for most of the course. Photoshop will be used to prepare images but the principles behind the image creation will be stressed, the principles will carry over into any program used to process images.
This series is for students of all levels of experience in web design who are looking to learn standards based web design. Students with little or no knowledage would begin in level 1, to understand these standards and how to handcode.
