Microsoft Teams: We won't use Teams for online class sessions
but it is helpful for messaging, one-on-one (or one-on-a-few) meetings
and office hours Q&A. So visit
Participation with MS Teams and be sure you can use Teams on at least
one device. It may help to include the computer you intend to use for this
course to help with screen sharing and trouble-shooting via Teams.

[Prepared by a colleague Dr. Paul York for this course]
Several students ran into issues with validating their HTML for
TechPrac01 (graded over last weekend & sorry it took me longer than
usual to get to it). Valid HTML means the HTML code itself conforms
to XHTML standards (things like end tags, appropriate meta data,
etc.) For guidance on how to validate HTML, please (re)visit (Video)
Week 1 Review beginning
at about the 1:00 minute mark or reach out to me -- it always helps
if you have specific questions (including, e.g., why you had points
deducted). In my grading comments for TechPrac01 where students had
validation or other fundamental issues I mentioned that you'd have a
chance to revisit these TP01 items in TechPrac03 (i.e., if you
correct the issues in TP03 I will go back and update TP01 scores, no
grade penalty). So if validation was a problem for your TP01 score,
take the time now to understand how to check and correct validation
errors in time for TP03 (as well as TP02 and the rest of the
course).
Two Week Overview:TechPrac03
is our last assignment that is due before midterm (not an exam, but the
last day -- Tue Mar 5 -- you can withdraw from class without a grade
penalty). It will primarily require you to --
as needed -- be sure your
AIST 2220 web site (with requirements as articulated in TP00 thru TP02) is properly deployed with HTML validated, HTML code in a nice format, no missing links,
appropriate rendered layouts and suitable content. This is essentially a chance
to correct any of these issues from the earlier TechPracs and not only earn
points for this TechPrac, I will go back and update earlier scores if you fix
the problems.

Input Form Attributes if you want but this gets more into what
happens on the server side in processing a web form which is beyond our
scope for the course).
