==== Homework 5 ====


* Demo site: http://www.wikimedia.org/
Create either an HTML5/SVG page, a HTML5 page that includes SVG, or a pure SVG page that includes some animation:
** http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Main_Page
* The page should include at least 2 animations
** Other Wikimedia sites ...
* The animation should be useful in one way or another. You can explain the purpose of the animation either within the page or by other means (e.g. through a comment in the world classroom)
* Demo site: http://www.wikia.com/
* Bonus: Some interactivity (e.g. a mouse click or mouse over)
* Demo site: http://edutechwiki.unige.ch/
* Demo site: https://developer.mozilla.org/en/Web_Development


-->
You either can create your own drawing using any SVG tool or add animation to a clipart file from http://openclipart.org. If you use external resources, please cite, e.g. in the SVG code using the ''desc'' element.


==== Classroom activities ====
Due: Wednesday week 6 before class (upload to the world classroom)

* Creating Flash videos: [[Flash video component tutorial]]
** Formats
** http://video.google.com/videoadvancedsearch (Google video search)
** https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/3006 (Video download tool, FF extension)
** Video encoding for Flash and Timed Text ([[Flash video component tutorial]], only "Video encoding with Flash CS3", "Using the video with the component first method", "Making use of captions")
* HTML 5 Video tag (short info)
 
<!--
* Wikis: the concept, variants
** Visit of some wikis (see wikisites above) + hands-on
** Wikimedia and the [[Mediawiki]] engine, including some visits and hands on Mediawiki

** Easy online wiki hosting (see [[Wiki#Wiki_hosting Wiki]] (Wiki hosting section)
-->
 
; Wednesday
* Homework 3 feedback (15 min.)
* [[COAP-2100/term project|Term project]] assignment and discussion (15 min.)
* Break (10 min.)
* Mid-term (see below) (80 minutes, 90 minutes max!)
 
==== Mid-term exam ====
 
You will be allowed to use all materials (open book, open Internet). However, use of communication software (including websites like Facebook) is strictly forbidden. Offenders will get an F.
 
; Subjects that will be tested
* Be able to find information in the Firefox Codeburner/SitePoint HTML and CSS reference
* Understanding of principles underlying web formats (HTML, XHTML and CSS) including some of the history
* Be able to create simple HTML code and detect errors
** DocType declarations (superficially, e.g. understand the difference between the strict and transitional HTML4x/XHTML1x models)
** Required tags: ''html,body,title,link,style,a,img,h1,h2,h2,p,blockquote,ul,ol,li,div,span''
** Required attributes: style + the elementary attributes of the HTML ''a'', ''img'' and ''link'' tags + class + id
** Notice: I may design an exam question that asks you to find the definition of another HTML tag or attribute.
* Simple CSS styling
** Basic selectors (tag names)
** Class and ID selectors (.xxx and .#xxx)
** Simple boxing properties (i.e. margins, not positioning)
** Simple text properties, e.g. fonts, color, font-family, line spacing, left/right/center alignment
* Color models
** Basic principles of RGB, RGBa, HSL and HSLa (''not'' HSV) and use of color models for CSS color and background-color values. E.g. you should know that RBG combines amount of three colors, that HSL is a color on the "360 color wheel" plus saturation and light. E.g. you should know that alpha means transparency.
** Be able to find a RGB hex value for a given color name and the other way round (using any tool/table you like)
* Simple design principles
** Be able to comment on a web site design
** Be able to state basic usability principles (what does it mean ?)
** What do we mean be wireframing
** Use of color palettes (basic principles)
** Testing a web site with users (basic principles)
<!--
* XML
** Roles of XML, types of XML languages
** XML Formalism, wellformedness
** The concept of XML grammars and validity (no technical details about DTDs, XML Schemas, etc.)
-->
<!--
* Wikis
** Principles, i.e. what is a wiki, in which contexts are they popular, kinds of wiki engines (roughly)
** Mediawikis (create a page, titles, paragraphs and list, internal and external links, categories, simple use of pictures)
** Wiki governance (editing policies)
-->
 
; Exam type
* The exam will be a quiz with various types of questions(e.g. MCQs, fill-in, debug, short answers)
* Tip: Most answers can be found in the [[Help:COAP-2100#Index_of_important_teaching_materials|teaching materials]] available in this wiki.
