Dover Sherborn High School Welcomes You!

Welcome to my class!

 
     

    Back to Main Page     Grades     HTML Tutorial      HTML WebQuest

HTML, HyperText Markup Language, is a programming language that tells a computer how to display a web page. The HTML programs are plain text files with special "tags" or codes that a browser knows how to interpret and display on your screen.  We will spend 5 - 6 weeks learning HTML and working on a project.  Our main resource for learning HTML is via an online tutorial.
About the Tutorial
The tutorial has 20 lessons.  The lessons prompt the students to develop a web site on the subject of the history ice cream.  While students can work on these lessons at their own pace, all students must complete through lesson 20 in order to have enough of a knowledge base to complete their HTML projects.  While students are given class time to work on the lessons, those students that fall behind are expected to attend extra help sessions after school or work on the lessons from home.  Students will be required to complete 9  review sheets that reinforce the lesson highlights.
