This is the last Topic where we will look at HTML elements in depth. At the point you should be comfortable with:

  • The Basics of HTML, Including:
    • Elements
    • Tags
      • Attributes
      • Opening and Closing Tags
      • Empty Tags
  • The Basic Structure of an HTML Document:
    • The HTML Element
    • The Head and Body Elements
  • Structural vs. Semantic Elements
  • Nesting Elements
  • Linking to Other Files (i.e. Images)
  • User Input

This week we will be wrapping up our unit on HTML by looking at three groups: additional structural elements, media, and metadata.

By the end of this Topic, we hope you:

  • Have experimented with using <div>s to structure the contents of your pages.
  • Understand how media is placed and accessed on the internet (hosted vs. streaming).
  • Source and reference outside materials directly within your site pages.
