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:

• The Web as Collage

• (Ab-)Usability

• Shiretoko! <video> and <audio> tags, finally

• Accessibility / Multiplicity: Screen Readers & Mobile phones -- programming for minimal / alternative browsing

Techical Plans

Your technical plan for the coming trimester should include the topics you would most like to cover (web-related or not), for instance consider the following list of possibilities:

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

Other

Stuff to include (somewhere): javascript basics, jquery (& prototype?), SVG (including links to scripting!)
