Web Page Development Workshops

Web Pages & HTML, Part I
Discover what's behind web pages then create a simple one yourself. Learn about HTML tags defining the basic structure; then learn about different types of lists plus tags affecting a web page's appearance.

Web Pages & HTML, Part II
Learn how to place all kinds of links in a web page: links to an external page as well as to another of your own; also anchors and links within a single page for easier navigation. You'll see how email links encourage others to write to you. Also learn about meta tags.

Dreamweaver, Part I
Find out how easy web pages can be with Macromedia's Dreamweaver!  You'l learn how to work in the document window with the Launcher and Properties Inspector using word processing skills you have now.  You'll  see how creating a site helps keep one project separate from others. Page properties, adding text, formatting objects, creating lists--you'll do all of this.  And then learn how the History palette can undo what you've done as well or apply past actions onto newly selected objects.  

Dreamweaver, Part II
Creating and working with templates is the focus of part 2. You'll see that templates save time, allow consistency across a web site, and prevent changes to global design and content. Besides templates, you'll learn how to make long web pages navigable through naming and links. Other topics: email links, meta tags, inserting images and, last but not least, creating image maps.

Great Stuff for Web Pages
In this softly-structured workshop you'll discover dozens and dozens of web sites with great stuff to make your web pages better. You'll do individual work on several sites then leave aware of and able to access the web page development aids on the web.

Promoting Your Website--Online
Done with your website? Now tell others about it! Promoting your website means informing others of its existence. If it's a site of interest only to local people, then promoting may mean just sending an email to a local group or requesting links be created to your site from existing, familiar pages others already use. But when your website could be of interest to others outside the local circle, you have some work to do to reach them. You must advertise--but not advertise the traditional route, nor the costly route.

Web Pages Using Contribute--In a Nutshell
Want to edit existing web pages--without getting too technical? This 2-3 hour workshop will get you up and running with Contribute, Dreamweaver's little sister. You'll discover Contribute can be used for browsing, but more importantly for connecting to sites to edit and then publish (put online) existing pages. Links, lists, images, tables, inserting files--this and more in this condensed workshop.
