About the Course

Thanks to a growing number of software programs, it seems as if anyone can make a webpage. But what if you actually want to understand
how the page was created? There are great textbooks and online resources for learning web design, but most of those resources require some
background knowledge. This course is designed to help the novice who wants to gain confidence and knowledge. We will explore the theory
(what actually happens when you click on a link on a webpage?), the practical (what do I need to know to make my own page?), and the
overlooked (I have the code, but how do I put it on the web to share with others?). Throughout the course there will be a stro...

I really enjoyed everything about this course. I thought the exercises/quizzes were fair and the instructor showed me many things that will serve me well going forward. Great course, great instructor!

Perfect for someone who wants to start learning HTML5 and the entire specialization from scratch.The course is well paced, starts off easy, and seriously takes you step by step into making a web-page.

A great course. You can learn a lot if you're willing to dive in yourself beyond the lectures. My only fault is that some of the quiz questions didn't really seem relevant to useful material learned in the course (ie, what year html was implemented etc.)

I want to request the instructors to please put on a video about how to connect to the server and everything about hosting in detail. The major topic was completely extracted rather it's a 2 day long procedure when students have to do it by themselves.

Content was organized in a good, easy-to-understand way. The course moved a bit slow at some points, though to be fair the instructor did mention that the course was for those with little to no prior programming experience. Overall, I learned a lot!

Overall for a beginners level online HTML course, I was able to get started with the help of this class. The prof gave useful information and I will be enrolling in more of her classes. I wish there would have been more quizzes and more projects.

This course is really a very basic introduction of HTML5. This course focuses more on improving on writing syntax and best practices for HTML5, and not so much on the coding aspect. This is good for beginners who wants to learn what HTML is about.

I found the course very good. The only thing I was missing is a correct way to get in touch with the other students enrolled at the same time as me. There is a community, though it's not really monitored and quite difficult to get an answer there.

A good introduction to HTML5 with a nice emphasis on accessibility. I think it is a great idea to focus on design with best practice in mind, so you are more aware of bad habbits that would otherwise creep into your own developing style unnoticed.

I loved the course, everything was just fine. And now i am excited to go and learn the other remaining material of the course. However, i also wanted the topics like, forms to be covered. No issues, i will do it by myself. Good luck everyone.

Couple hiccups with the autograder, but otherwise this course was very good. After messing around with HTML for years, it was about time I learned what the deal with HTML5 is. Just the right length, and definitely an Easy level of difficulty.

It would be really helpful, if the explanation of each concept, like hyperlinks, multimedia would have done by writing the code, basically showing a demonstration of syntax and all.

So that we can code side by side on the editor and learn it.

I like the course, but I'd like to have deeper information about HTML5 and more exercises for learning and practicing. Also, there's few info about hosting and managing your website. Hope i'll find it in sooner courses of this university.

a very well constructed course for everyone who wants to get hands on expertise in dealing with Html 5.

i enjoyed every single lecture and the most important of all is you get your understanding of html 5 tested through a Final Project.

Really helpful course. It is indeed the basics of the basics, but it definitely settled up a starting background for those that wish to develop a website. I would definitely recommend to a friend with no experience in the field at all.

It was a nice course for the beginner. But Dr.Chuck is an illusion in this course. Instead of watching her videos i would recommend to study about tags through W3schools.com (save your time). Watch week 3 videos they are informative

Overall this is a very good course. I had some experience with HTML5, but this course showed me the nuances of standard practice that I was otherwise missing. The instructor was very articulate and offered example with every topic.

In very lucid language, i have understood Intro to HTML5 using this course. Not only that this course also made me to get knowledge about how the internet works and about GitHub. Thanks to Coursera for making these courses for us.

It was good especially if you are a complete beginner.it covers many important parts other than the tag like domain,hosting,cpanel,GitHub pages and more.so if you are a beginner and want to be a web developer this is a good start.

I was a totally beginner. The lectures and slides are very well done. It felt sometimes repetitive. In the end, I think I got a good comprehension of HTML. Since coding, upload to the web, github. I really enjoyed the final exam.

Thanks to everyone, thanks to Coursera for the opportunity of learn and for supporting me, because I do not have the economic resources and education in my country is not a priority. Thanks.

A very well designed course. May want to consider the accessibility of the Final Project, as someone relying on a screen reader would not be able to interpret the screen shot in order to replicate the design into HTML code.

I really like the way that Colleen presented the materials. A lot of histories and related information. Since I have some experience in coding, I can follow along. But I think the course will be difficult for fresh starters.

Nice, well structured lessons. I really like the approach: you should practice instead of learning just books. Partially should be reviewed, e.g. assignment rating instructions contain typo (ordered vs unordered list).
