Lab1


          In the first lab I created an html document for the first time. I used the software Text Edit. First I opened text edit and went to the preferences. I changed the preferences by making sure plain text was checked, and to not check the box where it said check spelling as you type and show the ruler.Then I went to the Open and Save tab where I made sure the first option is marked (HTML) and that it was encoding-Unicode (UTF-8). I checked preserve white space and quit the application when I was done.Then I opened it again and saved it as LB1_sheimabegum_dd.html. I learned that you have to always end the document with .html when you save it.
         Then I started coding. The tags I used were <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "wc3">, <html>, <body>, <h1>, <h2>, and <p>. I also had to close the tags when I finished. The closing tags I used were </h1>, </h2>, </p>, </body>, and </html>. I typed the 3 paragraphs about who I am? And why I am here? I had to be very careful writing the tags to make sure I didn't mess up or make any mistakes. I also learned that you can't use an apostrophe and have to write the word out instead because if you use an apostrophe then a symbol would show up instead. It was cool to see the website I had made when I finished and opened it up in Safari. I felt successful and it made me more interested in coding.


This is the coding I did:

<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC “wc3”>
<html>
<body>

<h2>Lab1 by Sheima Begum</h2>
<p> I am Sheima Begum. I am from Bangladesh. I am a 15 year old junior in high school. I am a hardworking person. I am here because I was interested in the CTE Academy Web Design. In the first year of this academy I have learned how to make logos, business cards, use InDesign CS6, how to alter images using filters and PSCS6 tools that I did not know how to use before. I also learned how to make a mask silhouette and an interactive brochure.</p>
<p> This is my second year in this academy. I will be learning how to code, set up an html document. I am excited and nervous about coding since I never did it before. I will also work with new different software such as Adobe Dreamweaver CS6 and Fireworks. I want to pass this class with atleast an 90 or above. I want to have more knowledge so I can use it when necessary in the future.</p>
<p> I also want to pass the certification exam of both Photoshop and Dreamweaver. When I graduate I want to get the CTE diploma. I want to learn about animations and Javascript. I need to hone my skills as a web designer. This is who I am and why I am here.</p>
