    In ENG 330 you’ll be introduced to the practice of World Wide Web document design, grounded in an understanding of the Web’s development and theories of graphics and communication. The course focuses on researching, creating, revising and editing Web sites using “hard code” and applications-based layout and editing. Understanding of HTML and CSS forms the basis of the course; it also touches on other languages such as JavaScript and jQuery, and MLA style for bibliographies. Emerging technologies (HTML5 and CSS3) will be discussed.

    The class is a lot of fun but it’s a lot of hard work, too. We can all get the most of it if we follow a few basic guidelines:

  • Attend class every day, and please don’t be late. Attendance is important, and can count toward your grade.
  • You should consider allocating a jump drive (Dell or Lexar) to this course. Alternatively, you can save work to the I/H drive, but that can cause problems with file paths (I:\file).
  • Keep up with the reading. There will be a good amount of reading assigned, both in the text and on the Web. The less time we spend reviewing reading assignments, the more in-class time we’ll have to work on projects.
