This course is the first in a series that teaches students how (and why) to write web pages. We begin with an introduction to HTML, the language used to author web pages. We then go through a series of exercises of increasing difficulty that lead students through the construction of their own web pages. After some practice, the students will be introduced to some software tools that help them to create web pages more efficiently. Finally, the students will learn how web pages are uploaded to web servers via programs that implement the FTP protocol.
