Introduction

Websites are everywhere. They're used to sell products and services, provide analysis and opinion, entertain, and educate. In the Web Design CPU, students discover how the Internet came to be and how to create a web page using both HTML and a WYSIWYG (what you see is what you get) editor. Students will explore technical aspects of website creation when they consider file structure, when to use certain image file types, the proper development of navigation, and how typography plays an important role in the readability of a website.

Students compare advantages and disadvantages of create a web page in HTML and a WYSIWYG (what you see is what you get) editor.More importantly, however, students will learn how to design a site. They'll understand the use of color and contrast, and how to build the kinds of pages and navigation users expect. You can have the most beautiful, informative website on the Internet, but if no one can figure out how to get information from it, then it's of little use.
