Web Development Foundations – C779

Web Development Foundations, C779

Unit 1: Summary

unlabelled image

In this first unit, you learned about the infrastructure, mechanisms, and standards that make up the World Wide Web. After this general description, the focus turned to HTML and CSS. The basic definition of both languages was explained and exemplified with a detailed description of the most frequent elements, supporting materials, and exercises to help contextualize the field of web development. Throughout the modules, you were provided opportunities to use HTML and CSS code to produce web page content. You completed the modules by entering basic HTML code that rendered several elements in an HTML document, including text, background color, images, and video.

Specifically, the concepts of HTML structure and formatting options for common elements were presented. The basic tools to develop Graphical User Interfaces and web forms were introduced, as well as the integration of media (images, audio, and video) into HTML. Finally, we discussed industry standards, basic web page styles, best practices, and copyright issues that need to be addressed while developing web content.

Detailed Study Guide

How to Use this Guide

This guide outlines the major concepts you should gain competency for within each topic. There are two ways you want to consider the information:

1. Mastery:
Are you comfortable writing HTML and CSS? If not, practice writing your own code and analyzing existing code, as this will help strengthen your skills and knowledge. W3Schools, Codecademy, and SoloLearn are excellent, free resources for this practice. You can also download and install a text editor, such as Atom, and create HTML and CSS files.

Text Editor:
Download/install the Atom Text Editor to practice writing HTML code (Windows, macOS, or Linux). For information on how to get started with Atom, watch the Downloading and installing Atom and Introduction to the Atom Interface videos from LinkedIn Learning. Use your WGU credentials to log into LinkedIn Learning.
 

Online Text Editor:
Visit codepen.io and select “Sign Up” to create your free account.
 

2. Memory:
Can you recall the definition/purpose of each key concept without referencing your notes? Take this Quizlet to test your understanding of the course terminology. The Quizlet is good for this practice and these suggestions may help you improve your memorization outcomes. Watch this 3min video showing how to use the Quizlet to assess what is and is not in memory (Note that this video demo is for a different course, but the concept is the same).

  1. You must actively challenge your memory.
    1. ​Reading over notes practices recognition, not recall. Same with taking multiple choice quizzes. To improve memory, you have to work on memory.
    2. Ask yourself a question, answer from memory, then reference your notes.
    3. If you can’t recall the answer, read it, then close your eyes and repeat it back to yourself.
    4. Have a friend or family member quiz you! It guarantees you are working from memory and not recognition.
       
  2. Short, regular study sessions work.
    1. ​If you are only working on recall once a week, you are basically starting over each week.
    2. Short-term memory only lasts a few days.
    3. Aim for 15 minutes every day. This will help you retain the information much better.

Study Plan

You can use this study plan to learn the course material prepare for the objective assessment. It includes a 20-day pacing guide.
