Course Details

HTML is the essential language of the Web. Using a simple system of "tags", HTML describes to browsers the structure and appearance of web pages. Anyone wishing to work in interactive media is encouraged to learn HTML. Fortunately, one need not have a programming background to grasp HTML. Though there are some popular HTML editing tools, HTML can be written in any ordinary text editor.

In this course, students will learn the basic structure of HTML and many of the most commonly used tags to create fully functional web pages with images and hyperlinks and learn about the role of Cascading Style Sheets (CSS) in HTML pages and current recommendations such as XHTML.

Note: This class is taught on Macintosh computers, but you should also be able to use the the skills you learn on a PC. Email us if you have any questions.

Admission Requirements:
Photoshop experience is helpful but not required. Students should be comfortable with working on a Mac. Please submit a letter of interest (including a brief work history).
