Lowell Web Design Class

Starting Wednesday October 10, Alan Wagner, Resident Tutor and Lowell House Webmaster, will be teaching an introductory course in web design. Class will meet on Wednesday evenings from 9:00-10:30 in the Coolidge Room and will introduce students to the basics of HTML, stylesheets, graphics, and dynamic HTML, giving them a basis upon which to build further on their own.

No previous experience is required. We will start on the first day with “What is a web page?” and by the end of that session students will have a live page on the World Wide Web.

Please email Alan Wagner at agwagner@fas.harvard.edu with any questions.

Here are links to resources for the course and a discussion board to post your homework, make suggestions, and ask/answer questions:
