Introduction

This is a program for an introductory web technologies course. It is based on my COAP 2100 course at Webster University, Geneva. This is not the official syllabus nor the official program. See the (closed) Worldclassroom (Blackboard).

This course is a survey course that will focus on the core technologies students need to know in order to start designing professional Web pages. The course will cover basic web principles and act as an introduction to the technology and tools required in web design and coding, including XHTML, XML, CSS, JavaScript, HTTP, and others.

Course level learning outcomes (roughly)

At the completion of this course this student will be able to:

  1. Design a web page
  2. Code and validate HTML, XHTML
  3. Evaluate and use web page styles
  4. Edit and code simple JavaScript programs
  5. Create and validate an XML file
  6. Access a web server, code, test and run a server-side program
  7. Learn Web protocols
  8. Determine whether he/she has a greater interest in Web design or Web programming
Teaching Materials and reference books
  • There will be no required textbook (the instructor will use on-line materials and handouts, including photocopies from selected reference book sections). See the weekly program...
