Students began the class by reviewing the different files that they had created the previous day as well as the different tags they had learned. After the review, Austin introduced the students to CSS, which stands for "Cascading Style Sheets". CSS defines how the webpage displays HTML elements. CSS can change the colors, fonts, sizes, background colors, margins, and padding of HTML based documents. Austin continued by explaining the difference between Inline, Internal, External, and Default Style CSS. The students were then able to experiment with CSS and change the colors of the different headers, paragraphs, etc.
Next the class moved on to work with colors and more detailed formatting. Austin discussed the difference between cool and warm colors and introduced the students to RGB vs. Hexadecimal color codes. The students then experimented with what they had learned, changing colors in the web pages and working more with their new knowledge of web design. Students also learned how to create external style sheets and how to creat a link to the style sheet in the html file. Students learned how to create divisions in the page using the <div> tag and were able to create different backgrounds for different parts of the webpage.
