Media Workshop: World Wide Web
In this class you will learn how to design and construct pages for delivery on the World Wide Web -- that is the bottom line. More important than learning the mere mechanics of html coding however, is understanding the open and dynamic nature of the web and how to best serve your content. Toward that end, you will become a critical reader of web pages and learn to analyze the structure of web sites, as well as individual page composition. You will learn to consider navigation, interactivity and other "usability" aspects of web publishing -- features that are still being argued by the leading designers and researchers.
