Professor's Class Notes and Comments

This week...

This should be an easier week than last week. Maybe not, you decide.
Although tables are not being recommended for use to the extent they were in the past, they still play an important role in web pages. It would be helpful for your overall understanding to take time this week to experiment on your own with items that not part of an assignment.

There are only four short Hands-On practices this week so it is highly recommended that you do all of them.

If you have questions or are not certain about a concept, post to the Discussion List, contact me, or get with one of the tutors in the Student Computer Center. Whatever you do, please do not wait too long to get help. We are here waiting for you!
