Lesson 3
Today's topic was "Introduction to HTML and Worksheet HTML". Basically, what we learnt to day was about HTML, which stands for HyperText Markup Language. during this lesson, we got to learn about the backbone behind a website. We also learnt about how to build web pages using HTML. After spending some time going through the slides and videos, we were all equiped with the basic knowledge in building our very first web page.
Our teacher then proceeded to give out a worksheet for all of us to do. In it were some questions about HTML, for example "What does the tag <hr> do?" and many others. Well what "<hr>" actually stands for is horizontal rule, like this:
Towards the end of the worksheet, there were also 2 websites for us to view, which later we had to pen down our opinions and views of what we learnt and which website we preferred.
Aside from writing, as this subject is called "Infocomm Studies", we also had another challenge to complete. Our teacher gave us a file containing some text and an image. What we had to do was to use HTML and CSS to convert the plain text we were given into the model one he showed us. Simply said, we had to put in some HTML tags where necessary and also add in the image. For example we had to make some text
Bold,
Italic and many other things like that. We also had to give the image a border and make it such as when we put our mouse over it it will display a certain description text about it.
Unlike the previous lessons, for this activity we had to work in pairs. I think the main reason we were told to work in pairs as for this particular assignment, I feel it is more and harder then the previous ones, so we need 2 people to share the workload. After completing all this, I also learnt something that was not required for completing all the task while I was creating this post. I learnt how to put in this two brackets without letting the computer read whats in between them: <>. Be cause if I just put the original form like this "<p>", it will show what it does, and not the thing itself!
