Week 10 ( one of my nominated posts)

Week 10 lecture was run by Max,

the lecture was about HTML and CSS code.

Honestly, I never be taught about HTML before, so firstly it seem to be really hard for me to understand these computer's language. On the other hand, I felt that it is pretty cool if I know how to use these codes, because when Max showed an example of what can we do in the lecture, it look really interesting.

After that, in the tutorial Nathan made all my confusion and worry gone away, because he made every write the HTML code to make the IceCream Sandwiches web page, which guide by him and his fast typing page on the screen, ^_^

but at least he make me felt that the HTML and CSS is not that hard to understand, it just need sometime to spend looking at it and more practice.

after my web page turn out to be something like the example page, I felt really proud that at least I can do it.

some note of what I learned:

• li : list
• p : paragraph
• img: image
• ul : un-order list
• n av : navigator
• < href = "......."> : for tag
• < / HTML> : for the end

From the lecture, I learned that

HTML : is the set of markup symbols or codes inserted in a file intended for display on a WWW browser page. ( HTML is the content)

CSS : Cascading Style Sheets are a series of instructions that specify how text should appear on a web page. CSS set the rule for the content. you can use CSS to set the style for text, boarders, and other elements, and apply these style to the entire web site.

week 7

This week tutorial, Nathan lets everyone spend their time on their own project, he also helped and looked at every student's assignment one by one.

When it's come to my turn I showed him my online exhibition blog(what I have done so far) he suggested that I should do more writing, and he also critic about my crazy Html post format, because I had copied and pasted lots of writing into the post, he told me to rearrange it and keep the post look simple and easy to read.

Moreover, he also told me to write an introduction and the rational for my exhibition as well.

week 6

In tutorial week 6,

Nathan talked about Copyright that we have to deal with in the assignment 1.

He said that if it is a copyright work (all right reserved), we better not to touch it.

Plus, he also showed us that webpage that we can search for creative common (CC) work

After that, he help and discuss with student one by one about their project A.

comes to my turn, Nathan helped me with my project he showed me how to make the images that I posted link back to the original page.

Additional, What I learnt form the lecture 6 is 'wisdom of crowds'

wisdom of crowds is about the aggregation of information in group, resulting in decision that, are often better than could have been made by any single member of the group.

example: wikipedia ,open source software and decision markets.

These are 4 elements that required to form a Wisdom of Crowds

• Diversity of opinion : each person should have private information even if it is just an eccentric interpretation of the known facts.
• Independence : people's opinions aren't determined by he opinions of those around them.
• Decentralization : people are able to specialise and draw on local knowledge.
• Aggregation : some mechanism exists for turning private judgments into a collective decision.
