Computer Concepts: AAG: AA: Grading for this course: Blog: Calendar INDEX FOR THIS TRIMESTER

Trimester Three

NOTE 1: Front Page, like everything in life, will only be around for a short time. If we get Dreamweaver before the end of the trimester we will use that. However, there are many things we can learn about making a webpage using Front Page that will be transferable to other web design tools.

"Microsoft will close the book on its FrontPage Web-design program with the release of Office 2007, formerly known as Office 12, late this year..." Wednesday, posted at PC World February 15, 2006.
 

Microsoft's new product coming out soon "Microsoft® Expression®" with Office 2007 will use many of the features we will be learning.

NOTE 2:We are using Front Page 2003 but our books are 2002. When there are differences I will point them out as I see them.

Even though FrontPage will "gradually" fade away and is no longer being upgraded by Microsoft what we will cover in this class is usable in other web developing programs.

To get three points for today you must do exercise secondly, thirdly and fourthly. Note that thirdly and fourthly must be save in your FrontPage  folder labeled  Lesson 1 with your answers saved as exercise 2 and exercise 3. You will need to write them in Word first then save them as exercise 2 and exercise 3.

 

Firstly

Add the terms on page 10 and 16 to your 'Terms" folder or document that you began yesterday and saved in FrontPage  folder.

This is the basis of all web pages and what we learn today will be useable in any webpage making program.

You will need to know HTML - what it is and how to work with it.

After reading these pages start a new page and try different lettering in "Split" view. What is the tag for Bold? and Italics  and Underline?

secondly

Go to your blog. Firstly write your answers in Word, secondly, paste them into your blog at the end of the class.

thirdly

Read pages 10 - 24 in the book and do the exercises on page 15 and on 24. Pages 11- 13 are the most important part of the whole course - learn the tags.

NOTE - on page 15     ON YOUR OWN answer questions 6, 7, 8 and 12 and in FrontPage  folder labeled  Lesson 1 save your answer as exercise 2.

fourthly

Do the exercise on page 24 and save it as exercise 2-index.htm in your  FrontPage  folder labeled  Lesson 1 save your answer as exercise 2-index.htm
