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 strong emphasis on adhering to syntactic standards for validation and semantic standards to promote wide accessibility for users with disabilities. This course will appeal to a wide variety of people, but specifically those who would like a step-by-step description of the basics. There are no prerequisites for this course and it is assumed that students have no prior programming skills or IT experience. The course will culminate in a small final project that will require the completion of a very simple page with links and images. The focus of this course is on the basics, not appearance. You can see a sample final HTML page at https://example-site-1--wd4ehtml.repl.co/ . This is the first course in the Web Design For Everybody specialization. Subsequent courses focus on the marketable skills of styling the page with CSS3, adding interactivity with JavaScript and enhancing the styling with responsive design....

Well done. Feel ready to keep going. Instructor was easy to understand and follow. I did see a few questions in quiz not covered but was able to understand them through the informative links provided.

The lectures and assignments questions are more about the history of the internet and HTML. although I've finished the course but it wasn't as good as i thought.

Extremely basic, yet some of the concepts and their applications weren't well explained in the videos. I found the accompanying text to be dense and unclear.

Not very clear in some parts and the videos stopping for that style of questioning is annoying. The optional reading was much more useful than the required.

Didnt like a lot of theory and less coding, when it comes to coding, you have to dig yourself for data, so so

Unlike the HTML course which precedes it, this course was lacking information and structure.

Too little coding and too many talking.

It's better to learn HTML 5 with youtube videos.
