Part 10 Create a Web Page


This was so fun!!  I have learned so many new and excited things about how to set up and maintain blogs as well as design my own web page!  I never knew that I could be so savvy, with your help of course.  I have viewed code before but it always looked like complete gibberish to me.  Now that I know how to identify at least some of the characters it makes a little more sense to me.  Like in week 8 and 9 I always thought of the web as the Internet, and now to clearly be able to see them as two different entities is a learning experience.  

Since my major is more science based not IT based I don't know that I will look into writing code for fun, but if I have to do a large research project ever again, I will look into designing my own web page instead of using power point, just for fun.  

I definitely liked the wordle application, and will use that again.  I also plan on creating a personal blog about myself and my family, so I can ditch my Facebook.  I am beginning to have a love/hate relationship with Facebook and have been looking for a way out to still be able to keep in contact with my family that lives away.  

I have learned so much over this quarter about blogs, researching information, using the amazing sources that are available to us a students via the library, and now building my own web page.  I have enjoyed it, and will definitely tell peers to take this class.  

Thanks for a great quarter,
Megan Fletcher

  1. Hi, Megan:

    Thanks for your dedication. Your web page looks great and I'm glad it helped you understand how the web works at a different level.

    It sounds like you added quite a few tools and skills to your online research abilities that should prove useful in the future. It's pretty cool to create and post a web page and a final reminder to be wary of the "information" and "facts" you find online.

    Cheers,
    Andrea
