0. Today’s featured website: http://typetodesign.com/

1. Computers and mice

  • The computer you have in front of you is yours for the rest of the year. TAKE GOOD CARE OF IT!
  • We have 12 computers. There are 12 of you. If you wreck your computer, then you will have nothing to use in class. If you don’t have a computer, then how can you develop websites and pass this class? Please treat your computer with respect. I will make updates and fix things as we go along. I expect you to use the computer for class purposes only. I have seen students download viruses and malware when playing certain games or visiting certain sites; please be aware of what you’re doing and always ask me first.
  • You can change the desktop background if you want.
  • It is an excellent idea to right now create a folder on the desktop with your name. Right click on the desktop and go to New, then Folder.
  • If you would like a mouse, please take one along with a mouse pad. If we run out, I can get more.

2. Did you notice?

  • There is something different about the class website. What is it?

3. Continued from our last class

  • What are some web sites and apps you like? Why? Talk to the person next to you and make a list. Then we will share with the class.
