HTML5 - 1 Introduction

The HTML module is an essential component of any web development course. HTML stands for Hypertext Markup Language, and it is the standard language used for creating web pages. HTML is a markup language, which means that it uses tags to define the structure and content of a web page.

In this module, students will learn the basics of HTML, including how to create headings, paragraphs, lists, and links. They will also learn how to add images, videos, and audio to their web pages. Additionally, students will learn how to use HTML forms to collect user input and how to create tables and frames to organize content on a web page.

The module will cover the latest version of HTML, which is HTML5. HTML5 includes new features such as semantic tags, which make it easier for search engines to understand the content of a web page, and new multimedia elements, which allow developers to create more interactive and engaging web pages.

Throughout the module, students will have the opportunity to practice their HTML skills by creating their own web pages. They will also learn about best practices for web development, including accessibility and responsive design.

By the end of the module, students will have a solid foundation in HTML and will be able to create basic web pages. They will also be prepared to continue their web development journey by learning more advanced topics such as CSS and JavaScript.
