Tell me about your All About Me site. What are going to be your 4 main content pages? Why did you choose those topics? What big plans do you have for your site that is going to make it different and creative?

For my four sub heading I chose Sports, School, Social Life, and Family. Some cool things Im planning to do is adding some widgets. Im trying to have a widget as my navigation bar. I think it will add a lot of "swag" to my website.

What are your thoughts on HTML code? Did you enjoy the coding activity? Do you feel like you learned anything? Explain yourself.

I honestly don't really have any thoughts on HTML. The coding activity was okay like it wasnt really that fun but it wasnt completely boring. I learned a lot about HTML and I feel pretty confidant now about what HTML is  and a few commands/codes.  Its pretty cool how you can command your website by using code and never actually touching the "design" side of Dreamweaver. These are my thoughts on HTML.

Tell me about your three day weekend. How was it? What did you do?

This weekend I didn't do a whole lot. On Friday, I hung out with some friends and someones house and just hung around and didn't do anything too fun. On Saturday, I just hung around the house and did nothing and I was really bored. On Sunday, I went over to a party to watch the playoffs for the NFL. Finally, on Monday, I had basketball practice in the morning and then I hung out at Oak Park Mall like the whole day with friends just looking at some clothes and stuff.

Tell me if you agree with this statement and then explain why or why not. "Images on the internet are 'free game' - if someone posted it, I should be able to use it."

It all depends. If the image is copyrighted I don't think your're allowed to use it at all. But whenever you use an image that inst yours then you have to cite your source. If you don't its considered plagiarizing and you could get in some trouble. So whenever in doubt just cite the picture.

What do you know about plagiarism? What do you know about plagiarism on the internet? How do web design, the internet and plagiarism all effect each other? Explain.


What I know about plagiarism is that its bad and you shouldn't do it. If you get caught plagiarizing without citing your sources, you can be in big trouble. Teachers don't like plagiarizing because its taking someone else work and saying its yours. If you want to use a quote or something, if you cite it you should be fine.

What I know abut plagiarizing and the internet, is that it happens a lot. On how its related to web design, when we are making our websites we have to make sure not to plagiarize. If you use any pictures or music that not yours, you will need to cite it and give credit to the person who made the Picture, Video, Song Etc. So just to make sure, when in doubt cite it.

What do you already know about web design? How it works? Programs you can use? Tools that exist? Anything.

I know a few things about web design. In science I have done a few of the "free webs" websites where you can create a website pretty easily. I know that people have to pay money to have a website domain. I also know that companies pay a lot of money to have their websites show up first on Google, Bing Etc. Some programs I know that involve web design are Freewebs.com, I know of GoDaddy but I don't really know what exactly it is. This is really the only things I know so far about web design.
