Each link above leads to its own example for each course.

(The area above shows links to assignment pages for all four web-delivery courses. If you have one course you will have only one of these links and one assignment page.)

 

The header and links as show above are all I expect for your assignment page (or pages, depending on how many classes you are taking). This may look sparse (it is) because ...

This is not a graphical web design course. These courses are limited to the functional mechanics behind certain usages (with a minor exception being the Web Radio course).

If you have an existing site at UMKC (see prerequisite) you need only add the assignment-page links to your existing front page (the default page). This should be a very simple exercise for you because ...

You should already have taken a course in making and publishing web pages before coming to any of these courses. The pre-requisite is there for the purpose of making this part of the course very simple and straight forward.

 

This is the home page at UMKC for Mike Strong. It is intended as a very simple starter page to give you an idea of what is wanted for the various exercises in these courses in the XLIII Multimedia Block taught out of PACE:

NOTE: The database course does not have any on-the-web assignments. In the case of the database course, you email the database file to me.

You are encouraged to View Source Code and to Copy and Paste ("View" menu and "Page Source" option).

Two of the most important reasons why the World Wide Web took off so rapidly and grew faster and more in months than the internet (and its precursors) did in its 20+ years of existence at that point are:
1) browsers were made so that anyone could view the source code and
2) the HTML source code was simple enough that even non-technical people could create pages with simple tools.

Viewing source code is learning by example.

When you see a web page you think is interesting, view the source code - look "under the hood" - to see what makes it work.
