AUT 2012
SLN 13609
Tues/Thurs 2:30 - 4:20 in MGH 076
SEEK ADD CODE from Professor: George Dillon
Description:
Texts: David Kadavy, Design
Laura Franz, Typographic Web Design: How to think like a typographer
in HTML and CSS. Wiley, 2011.
The course will focus on the design of web pages to achieve various "looks" as well as some of the newer HTML5 functionalities. We will work on reading source and stylesheets of exemplary pages and will emulate and modify them. We will introduce some basic Javascript, mostly via jquery modules, and will use the HTML 5 syntax to include visual and audio clips.
The course assumes some familiarity with HTML and the web. If you have ANY idea what the previous paragraph is talking about, you will be ok. If not, the course will be a scramble to catch up. The prerequisite can be waived for the self-taught and for other compelling cases. (contact dillon@uw.edu).
