Computer Programming: Writing HTML and Code

This screen links to advanced resources on developing code for websites.

Course Website http://cis.tamu.edu/webhost/started.php
If you want to set up a course web page on www.tamu.edu, here are the simple steps to getting an account so that you can publish to the web.

HTML Made Easy (http://www.accessv.com/~email/webpages)
This is the best basic HTML tutorial on the web we have found to date.  If you find one that is better, please write to balfour@tamu.edu.

Java (http://developer.java.sun.com/developer/onlineTraining/)
Sun created Java, so why not go there for online tutorials?

PERL (http://learn.perl.org/):
THE scripting language!

Web Monkey (http://hotwired.lycos.com/webmonkey/authoring/)
Tutorials range from basic html to design, programming, and multimedia production, all with various subcategories. The left  menu lists the overarching topics of the tutorials. In fact, this is the first place we look when we want to learn how to do something with web pages. 

Web Building (http://www.utexas.edu/academic/cit/howto/resources/webbuilding/index.html)
From the University of Texas’ Center for Instructional Technologies, this site describes web authoring and then goes much farther into information design and instructional design.  While some of the information is only relevant to faculty at UT, the tutorials (basic and intermediate) and design tips (including accessibility) are applicable to all educators.

Web-based Training (http://www.webbasedtraining.com/)
This is an excellent design resource for those thinking about web-based courses instead of just web-supplemented courses. The WBT Primer covers almost every angle, and the site has links to MANY resources. There are links to learning theory sites and other topical sites that may interest any educator.
