Webmasters

The Webmasters will develop, design, and maintain Web pages, incorporating advanced Web concepts. Since students create professional, quality Web sites for customers, this course requires students to be engaged and self-directed, using initiative and problem-solving skills in researching answers. During the course, students will interact with clients at all stages of the Web site production in order to create Web pages using CSS coding with documentation, XHTML, Dreamweaver, Photoshop, Flash, Adobe Acrobat Writer, and JavaScript. Additionally, students will test and validate sites, optimize their search engine capabilities, and set up maintenance schedules. Finally, students will engage their minds while delving into Internet protocols, networking, security, e-commerce, Web hosting, and troubleshooting computer equipment and software.
