Taking BE 170

Hello Bloggarinos!

I am a little sad that this is our last blog together. I can't believe the last 8 weeks have flown by. I still am glad to be done with HTML but I will admit that knowing HTML helped if I wasn't liking how Dreamweaver set something up. For example, I would enter breaks in Code view of Dreamweaver. I have been inspired by this course to enroll in another web design class next semester, hope to see some of you there.

I must say that I was pleased with the books we used for this course, since we are online it is important to have a book that explains things well, is easy to follow and easy to use as a resource. Both texts have been great!

I was happy to see many students participating with the bulletin boards. I feel we got to know each other through them and the group project. A suggestion for the blogs would be to have us write one for each week rather than each assignment, combine them. This would save time and really I had similar comments about the different assingments so sometimes it was hard to think of good comments to make. I was disappointed that a group member bailed on us, I think it would have been nice to have more suggestions but Virginia is an awesome team member!

Carrie and Viola, you have been great in assisting me with problems/questions over the last few weeks and for that I say a big THANK YOU.

I now feel I have a basic understanding of webdesign and look forward to learning more, not sure I would like it as a carreer but as I said in the beginning of the course I would like to use these skills for some of the groups I volunteer for.

Happy Holidays!
