Lab #13 Reflection

Lab #13 required us to create an index to our web page on the techteach.us/Web2020 server. Basically when someone would click on your name, it would show a white page indicating the index and whatever was available on that page to click on. With our index, we can make that white page turn into something more detailed using an external CSS stylesheet. First off, to make an index, the file name needs to be index.html. This is a requirement because it tells the browser to open that file upon loading onto the website. Since I like dark colors, stuck with a color scheme of red, white and black. I first made my nameplate on the top and added headings like class of 2020 and digital design. Those were all within one div. I then made a table to represent the navigation bar to switch between the homepage, labs page and projects page. The content within those pages are self-explanatory, labs go in the labs index, and projects go into the projects index.The stylesheet used in this lab was then applied to all other pages that I had created in my labs section. My theme was then set and my page more organized for users to navigate where they need to be. Web Designers would need to know how to do this when they want to make their website have a theme and allow for it to be user friendly.

WBL Workshop #6 Interview Skills

-
          WBL Workshop #6 was about testing our interviewing skills. First thing that happened was us entering the room without knowing that we were going to be interviewed. So as a student you could say some of us were surprised about it. There were different people interviewing students that took place during this workshop. Students were set at different "stations" of people who would interview you. I was a little confused at first about what the interview would be about and what job we were actually being interviewed for to represent a mock interview. Then I realized that a perfect job for the situation would be something revolving around being a web designer. When it was my turn to be interviewed I wasn't nervous because I had some pre-answers in my head for obvious answers.               During the interview I kept looking toward the top right, for no apparent reason. I feel like I should have been looking at the employe...

CTE Expo Reflection Journal

     The objective of the CTE EXPO was to engage the freshmen into seeing what the Web Design Academy was made of and what were the benefits of joining. It was also to make their interests peak as they could be exposed to these special skills.  To prepare for the CTE EXPO I just ran through looking for my best business attire I possibly had because I knew how important this event was, During the actual event I grabbed freshmen attention by saying, "hello are you interested in learning more about the visual design part of the CTE academy?" I used that line pretty much all the time to get the attention of the freshmen who looked lost or confused. I think what went well was that most of the freshmen, all the ones I met with, had an interest in the subject because of the amount of questions they asked and how detailed their questions were. For next year's CTE EXPO it would be best to realign the table structure because the poster boards of the visual design class were in...

Lab #12 Reflection

This lab was fun to learn but a little difficult at first. If you were learning adobe illustrator for the first time and had to do something with it, you would have a lot of trouble if you weren't reading the tutorials or listening to them. At first for me personally it was a little hard trying to figure out what to do. I go to the lab pretty much every day on my free period. Lunch personally is boring for me. Let's get back on topic. I took my time to read the tutorial for adobe illustrator again and absorb what I read. I did the extra reading to scan what I needed to complete the lab and what skills were needed to complete it. Though I wish I can post my work here, I really can't due to the fact it is saved in a pdf file. At first the file was in an .ai file but since I had to submit it in for a grade it was transferred into a pdf file for viewing purposes. It was something we learned from reviewing adobe illustrator. Adobe illustrator wasn't that hard to learn. The b...
