Class Schedule
Here is a list of the three sessions. Each of them will occur from 1:00 p.m. to 4:00 p.m. There will be mostly formal presentations with time open for discussions and Q & A.
The sessions will all be about building and/or editing websites using only a text editor. Students are strongly encouraged to attend all sessions, bring their own Macs, and to ask questions. We will aim at the lowest common denominator as much as possible. There will be no instructions on any of the WYSIWYG applications that can be used to generate websites using templates.
Students should have a working knowledge of Macintosh basics and be familiar with the use of a text editor such as TextWrangler (free) or TextEdit.
The schedule below is subject to changes.
