The Web: From 1.0 to 2.0 and back again

This trimester will be focused on the Internet / Web. We will cover fundamentals concepts of the web (Hypertext, HTML, HTTP, CSS), while making connections to scripting, using Python when possible, and other scripting languages (such as JavaScript) when appropriate.

Meetings:

  • (Ab-)Usability
  • Shiretoko! <video> and <audio> tags, finally
  • Accessibility / Multiplicity: Screen Readers & Mobile phones -- programming for minimal / alternative browsing
  • To scroll or not to scroll
  • Frames
  • Headline scrambler revisited
  • Feed Collages
  • Offline: The future of webapps?
  • Drag and drop day
  • Zooming Out: Fisheye views / Elastic interfaces
  • The blurring line between application and web

  • javascript
  • jquery
  • prototype
  • Applets (java/processing, flash)
  • CGI
  • Database/MySQL
  • Vector Graphics (SVG)
