Coding HTML



General Description

Your last assignment is a continuation on last week's coding assignment. The resources I posted the week before Thanksgiving are still helpful this week so I will not repeat that information here. You will continue your Code Academy lesson and complete ONE of the following modules: "Make a Website" or "Learn CSS' which are part of the HTML and CSS module that you completed about a week ago. If you are interested in solidifying last week's skills, I suggest the "Make a Website" lesson. If you are interested in learning web development in more depth, I suggest the "Learn CSS" lesson.

If you choose "Make a Website," complete the following sections:

  • What are HTML and CSS
  • Anatomy of an HTML element
  • Add a Heading
  • Add a Paragraph
  • Anchor Elements
  • A Closer Look
  • Adding Images
  • Add a Video
  • Create and Unordered List
  • Parent and Child Elements
  • Add a Div
  • Metadata: The Brains
  • HTML Review

If you choose "Learn CSS," complete the following sections:

  • Intro to CSS
  • Inline Styles
  • The <style> Tag
  • The .css File
  • Linking the CSS File
  • Tag Name
  • Class Name
  • Multiple Classes
  • ID Name
  • Classes and IDs
  • Specificity
  • Chaining Selectors
  • Nested Elements
  • Chaining Specificity
  • Important
  • Multiple Selectors
  • Revise CSS Selectors

To show that you have completed these lessons, you will be required to submit screen shots with your username and completion status. There is no paper required for this assignment.

Instructions

Once you have created an account and logged into Code Academy, find lesson: Introduction to HTML. Start this lesson. Do NOT pay for anything - the requirements of this assignment are for the free parts only. Here are some images to show you what to look for:

Output

I need to know 1) That you completed the required sections and 2) That it was YOU who completed the lessons. I need a screen shot or pdf of your completion progress and that it is from your account. You might need to submit more than one file to make this happen, which is perfectly fine. If you need software to make a screen shot, I suggest Jing, a free application I used to make the screen shots for this course.
