Web Programming - Week 1

This week we were given a general overview of what the course will entail for the year such as HTML CSS Java Script ect.

    Furthermore, we learned about the steps taking in creating a website. I found that there were far building blocks incremental to web design than simply just using one method e.g CSS.

   The inital idea, needs to be sketched and planed, there then needs to me the foundation of the site created with CSS or HTML and further on in the process tools like, JAVA, PHP and FLASH need to be added to enhance the sites look and feel, and to keep on par with the industry standard.

   Finally this week we took a look at some examples of the elements of a good site such as http://www.Nike.com and critiqued them on what made them appear well made. In addition we also took a look at some examples of a badly designed site. This really helped me get a perspective of what is generally accepted as good and bad, even if this can be very subjective.
