Course Description
This course is the equivalent of a 3 semester-hour college course on Web Design, without all the nasty tests. This course will introduce you to the basics of HTML5 markup so you can create a website with forms, images, responsive navigation, etc. Because the course does not rely on a specific WYSIWYG code editor, you will also understand what each line of HTML markup and CSS does. This is essential so that later when you start using a WYSIWYG code editor and you need to make changes, you know what is going on under the hood.
Course Materials
In addition to the video screencasts, this course includes a start file for each unit and a completed example so you can see the code in action.
Course Structure
This course contains 8 units, each of which build on the previous unit. By the end you will have a fully functional website. Who this course is for:
- This course is designed for beginners who want to understand what the code does and how to solve problems.

I was slow with the examples, but the time was worth it.
Clear, concise, to the point, and understandable!

I think this class so far has been very good. I didn't understand the interface until we started doing more exercises through the class. It has been very educational. I'm excited to learn how to do forms now.

I did this as part of an online college course through Utah Valley University. I loved it. He explains everything thoroughly and it is easy to put it to use immediately and see instant results.

Easy and clear to understand
By Daxton Cheshire on 9/7/2019
I'm enjoying it. Based off of past experience learning this information, I'd definitely consider myself a beginner. However, the course is set up in a way so that it is easier to understand.

I thought this was going to be hard to understand, but the way Dr. Paul Cheney is teaching and giving examples in human language it helps A LOT!

So far it has been clear and easy to follow.

The way it is conducted is clear in its introduction but the speed of the teaching doesn't allow me to practice with it.

The Udemy course was helpful in supplementing what was also presented in Canvas and via a third party website.

This course is very easy to understand, and I feel like I have a very good understanding of how to start coding with HTML. The way Paul has broken down each element with brief descriptions, and short simple sections that are easy to re-watch, sets up a great building block environment.
