Please give me your opinion on this. The tuition is 4 classes a week, of 3 hours duration each. And this is for 6 weeks.
Is this enough?
| | A. | It's both more than enough, and also NOT enough, all a the same time.
Here's the problem... a truly successful, QUALITY website takes a large number of diverse skills that are rarely bundled up in one person. For example...
1) Design and layout and usability studies... the creative/artsy stuff.
2) Web programming, database design, writing program specifications... the software engineering stuff.
3) Writing for the web... tailoring content to be search-engine-friendly, developing strategies to successfully "market" a website, managing a flow of incoming data from contributors (to keep the site "live" and updated).... the advertising and writing end.
4) Managing database backups, managing and maintaining relations with the registered users... the "boss", administrative, manager and IT department stuff.
A great way to measure what direction you want to go, and the skills that apply to the field that interests you... have a look at the "job roles" over on Brainbench... they recommend a specific set of certification tests based on the job role you're after. Some of the tests are free, most aren't... but you can look at the outlines of each test for free, and it will give you an idea of what topics you'll want to cover. | | | |
| Q. | Need web development help?? Open source Software? | Related Search:
Programming & Design | | | I'm really puzzled about this thing here....
We have a website (called The Gospel Of The Kingdom). It was originally developed with Adobe Dreamweaver. I downloaded a free trial of Dreamweaver, after a friend of ours developed the site. I then did lots of modification and updates, etc, etc.
Now, the site is not the most search engine friendly website there is, it seems. Furthermore, its all HTML, and there are some problems with both the HTML and the CSS Style Sheet. I am going to take a college course on web development but until then... I need some tips and pointers.
I read so much good about Joomla, and I've even installed it on our server in a sub directory. But, It was just about impossible for me to find a template I liked, that was free... and even harder to make one myself. We would like it to look like our current website, but to be formatted more for letters and books (the current HTML site is very narrow as far as that goes).
There are a lot of apps... Nvu got me into A LOT of trouble with HTML coding and I would never use that again. I heard about Eclipse and Aptana... I'd like to get that maybe, if it would work.
So, basically... I need some help as to what app to use. We do not have the money for Dreamweaver and I've read a lot of bad about HTML coding, etc, etc. Joomla would work out great if I could just make the template look like our current website. I'd give a link but Yahoo Answers does not allow that. :)
I forgot... I mainly use my laptop which is running Gentoo Linux. But I also have access to a Mac OS X computer... and the use of Wine, on Linux :)
Thanks... but, I'm not saying HTML is complicated. I'm learning it. Personally, I find the CSS to be more complicated than HTML, only because I know almost nothing about CSS. I'm learning though.
Hey everyone...
Thanks for all the answers :).
For the record, I am not stupid and am perfectly capable of learning such things. Thats the way it went with Linux... I started off small and now I stepped into the water... I'm running Gentoo. I really like it.
As far as HTML, I am learning it....
Actually, I want to go to college to become a web developer... Thank you for all the tips.
I'd have to do a lot of reading then, I understand that. Thank you all for the links. I will check that out more...
I agree too, if you want something nice, you either spend the money, or spend time, or spend both.
Be Blessed.

| | A. | Joomla is definitely tricky...
I don't want to sound like a jerk, but it looks to me as though you're in over your head. As a professional, I'd advise finding a pro to get you going. Once Joomla is set up, you can keep it rolling with relative ease.
Hiring someone can be tricky, but seeing as you are a non-profit...there are resources out there. I do freelance work myself a quite a bit, I've seen non-profits get away with quality sites for dirt cheap (I've done a couple myself...for as little as 300 bucks for a complete overhaul).
Here's a list of sites that sell designs: [Link]  /
Some of those offer bidding, some let you specify a price for a project. This one is my fav: [Link] /
You can say "I'm willing to pay 100 bucks for a joomla template". You may get tons of designs, you may get none. But it is like priceline for web designs.
If you absolutely cannot hire someone, start studying...hard.
Me, I have a degree in design, and I can tell you that it is not something you can just pick up in a weekend. It is complex, it is challenging, and it is not easy. But it sure as heck is fun. | | | |

What do I need to already know before taking the C+ classes?
| | A. | thats a loooong list. i think u dont need to know all of that...it wont hurt if u do. but it would take a loooong time and would be hard to keep upto date with all. of them.
Also its good if you pick an alegence between Miscrosoft and Open source. if its microsoft you'll be doing ASP, sql server C#, WPF or open source it would be php, oracle, java.
you need to learn basic web designing so u need html, css
dont bother about vb script and c ++. they are kinda outdated. pick one programming language and master it. i recommend c# | | | |

/* STYLE SHEET FOR BLITZ.HTML */
/*body {
font-family: arial, verdana, helvetica; color: black; font-size: 10pt; background: tan;
}*/
/*h1 {
font-family: arial, sans-serif; color: black; font-size: 24pt;

/*h3 {
font-family: arial, sans-serif; color: black; font-size: 13pt;
} */
This is the second part of the assignment
The Summer Youth Blitz is a unique service experience for a diverse group of youth, ages 16 to 18, from high schools and youth organizations around the United States. During this program, 15 to 20 youth participants and adult leaders "blitz build" an entire Habitat house in two weeks.
The house build, an unfamiliar activity for most, provides a common, nonthreatening ground for building relationships and teams.In the evenings, the youth participate in activities like team-building games, leadership development,local cultural events or community dinners.
This program is sponsored by national grant donations and coordinated by the Campus Chapters and Youth Programs department of Habitat for Humanity International. For the past several years, funding has allowed for three blitz builds per summer--two in the United States and one outside the country. The builds take place during the months of June, July and August.If you're interested in participating, and are between the ages of 16 and 18 years old, you must submit an application, which is available during January and February.
Ok I figured it out after hours of searching and a migrain headache. I was able to create a css style sheet in html and made my first website. Its so cool.
| | A. | That's a stylesheet. It contains the styles used by the html web page for various html tags.
For example, text in the <body> will have the font set to helvetica, black, 10pt, tan background
The <h1> <h2> and <h3> definitions are similar. They set the font,color,size. So if you use an <h1> in your html page it will be sans-serif, black, 24 pt.
BUT, all of these are commented out. To use these styles you need to uncomment them (remove the /* and */ )
and you need to include this file in your html page. Google "include stylesheet in html" for an example on how to include this file.
Now, I have no clue what to do now. Are you supposed to create the web pages/applications/etc ? | | | |

Student learning takes place by building Web Pages in the W3 Standards
professionals web designers use on the Internet. Beginning with development of
understanding for “good”, or effective web sites, and “bad”, or poorly designed
or implemented web sites, students learn analysis and design ideals through
research and investigation of current websites.<br>
<br>
Using HyperText Markup Language (HTML) as the basis for their pages, they then
learn to apply the analysis, design and "user friendly" concepts, while
implementing controls of the formatting and display of information on a web
browser (i.e., Microsoft Internet Explorer). Beginning with small projects of
single pages, they learn structure, execution of code, and implementation of
tools to create fully functional pages. They then expand this understanding to
more complicated websites.<br>
<br>
Exposure to a very basic tool for HTML development, students progress to simple
development software for experience, and then add the use of Dreamweaver*, with
possible expansions into Flash and/or Fireworks animation options. Doing this,
students get a variety of software exposures, while developing deeper and more
complicated application techniques. <br>
Students also have an introduction to Cascading Style Sheets (CSS); the web
community of developers are pushing for this option to become a standard for all
web sites. Depending upon class progress and student achievement, other topics
can be included. For this course, created final projects will potentially be
added or used to update the CV school web site.<br>
<br>
<strong>Advanced Web Development</strong><br>
Students wishing to continue developing their understanding of web design may
register for higher levels in Web Design, with larger and more diverse projects.
With advanced class options, the student may either work within a frame work of
skill development projects, or propose a project that would include these skill
sets. Foundational skill requirements would include expansion of Cascading Style
Sheet understanding and use; understandings in website management, website
analysis and standards development, and implementation of website updating and
maintenance; and exploration of Flash and Fireworks. Skill sets learned in prior
Web Design classes and familiarity with development and ease of implementation
will increase learning options and self-determined project choices. A goal for
this class would be development of a student web master to assist with the CV
web site. There is a potential for this class to take place all year, with
approval.</div>
