TS 313 Resources To learn (X)HTML, we will need:
These online lectures from Blackboard The HTML textbook from Elizabeth Castro
Readings will be assigned each week Tools to create and test your (X)HTML A World Wide Web server for practice A way to transfer documents to the server And, a way to look at your work on the web
The Blackboard Server The BlackBoard instructional system:
Has the TS 313 syllabus (please read/print) Has staff information and contacts Has course documents, assignments, class
discussion groups & project requirements You are already logged in if you are reading this
Each Thursday, we will begin a new class week Assignments are due by each Wednesday evening The midterm exam is in week 6 (no assignments) The final exam is in week 12 (your project is due)
Castro's HTML Textbook Each week, we will assign readings This first week, you should read
The Introduction and Chapter 2 Chapter 1 will be covered next week
Next week we will begin to detail the basics, elements, tags and structures of (X)HTML
This week, we focus on software and servers
The TS 313 Software To prepare our (X)HTML documents:
You will learn how to "hand code" (X)HTML You may use Wordpad, Notepad, Word, OR
You may use an optional, free, HTML editor To upload/manage your server account:
You need a required, free, FTP program This first week we provide both
instructions and demonstrations for all these tasks
The Matrix Web Server Matrix is a Pace University web server We will use it to upload, test and view all your
assignments and projects You already have an account on Matrix E-mail your instructor if you have not already
received your server ID, userid and password During this first class, we will setup and
practice using your account on the Matrix server by uploading your first simple HTML document
Viewing Your Work on the Web The Matrix server is available on the web Each section of TS 313 has its own page
On that page, there is a link to all your work The email from your instructor gives the address You may share this address with family & friends Your work will remain on the server for some
months after the class has finished However, you should always save your work locally
on your PC or on removable media
Course Setup Instructions Following this presentation are several
supplemental lessons to help you: 1 - Prepare your first simple HTML document 2 - Find, download and install CoreFTP, the
File Transfer Protocol client which will allow you to move files to and from the server
3 - Configure your Matrix account and upload your first simple HTML file
Your First HTML Document Here is a brief overview:
<html><head><title>Ready</title></head><body><h2>My name is . . . . </h2><h3>Ready for TS 313</h3></body></html>
Communications We need to communicate with each
other We will use two methods to do this:
The Discussion Board Introduce yourself; post questions & contributions
E-mail directly to the instructor Your instructor will monitor e-mail closely

software and how to access to the class web server Then go to the week one assignments
