This is a very nice introductory course. Although I have experience with HTML, I appreciate the fact that it assumes no previous knowledge and takes the time to show beginners how to create and save an HTML file for the first time, as well as some of the editors that are available. Three weeks is a bit short, in my opinion. I would have liked to see forms being covered a bit, even if the actual handling is postponed until JavaScript is covered. I was also expecting for the canvas tag to at least be mentioned.

Overall, an excellent course for beginners!

Overall, this course is pretty good. Colleen explains the concepts very well and also directs to other resources that can be helpful. However, it will be more effective if there are more coding exercises especially, in week 2 where there is a lot of discussion on "tags". Lastly, the only part which I did not find very useful was the "peer reviewed final project" and the reason behind that is that for some people like me who are going through the course very rapidly, have to wait until someone reviews your course and that takes some time to be completed.

El curso es muy bueno pero, la verdad en Argentina los dolares son muy caros y, tener que pagar para un certificado no es posible para nosotros. Me gustaría que lanzaran un curso para los que no podemos acceder a ese certificado, o alguno que nos pueda ayudar a decir "Hice un curso y tengo un certificado que lo comprueba". Por lo demás disfrute mucho todas las clases y me ayudó a comprender muchísimas cosas que antes no podía comprender. La profesora es excelente y que sea didáctica simplifico mucho el aprendizaje.

It's a good course and the instructions were really good. but i wanted to learn a lot more. specially, i had the impression that after doing this course, ill be able to design a full website using html5. but unfortunately i couldnt get much of practical knowledge needed for that. i had to eventually take help from youtube for the final project. so from the practical perspective, the course wasnt so satisfying but as a introduction to the language and from the theoretical perspective, the course was overall good.

At first, I didn't know how to prepare for exams because I had never taken a computer coding course before. It is like learning another language. There are a lot of new terms, and reviewing other peers' work did help reinforce the terms. However, I feel that I need still need time to review terminology over and over..., so I can become quicker. It is nice to know tools like cheat sheets, validators, and forums can help when coding. This class made me appreciate our technology team more at my job.

Really enjoyed this course. I had completed a basic overview of HTML prior to this, but Colleen provides a great overview for complete beginners, and I love her focus on accessibility. A lot of those pieces were new to me and not covered in many introductory courses.

One note is to be careful when taking quizzes or reading homework assignments. There are typos or unclear requirements at times, so it is helpful to watch the optional videos on the assignments when available for additional clarity.

Lectures are great. Colleen sounds very amiable. She has great tips.

Downside: You're only required to do some coding for the final project. I think this course would be better if they'll add an in-browser editor so students could play with code after a lecture.

Yes, I do play with code after the lecture to get around it, but I think the way the lectures are presented tempt the students not to. So any additional prompts such as in-browser editor - for in-lecture quizzes - definitely will help.

Everything was easy to understand the teacher really tried to have a slow pace so everybody could follow along. However, it was a little too slow for me. I took this course to get a basic, but profound knowledge about html5. I know a lot of tags and best practices now, but do not have a clue why I would use <footer> and <header> instead of <section>, except for "SEO reasons". How does it influence my ranking? What does it help with? Those questions were not answered.

A good intro to the HTML material, which is an entry level into coding in itself. Since its intro it doesn't cover the vast array of of available tricks accessible within the language and there may be instances where you have to seek tips elsewhere on the internet. By the end of it all you should be able to build some basic HTML elements. With that, there are still some tidbits about the basics of HTML (tags) that I still have questions regarding importance/use of.

The instructor explained the use of html tags and the proper syntax and semantics of HTML coding. She also explains well how to make a webpage accessible, which is a part of the course. The required softwares and their use has also been touched upon. As the instructor claimed, all possibly used HTML tags have not been mentioned, since that would make this an appendix to a book, instead of a course. This course is a good way to introduce beginners to HTML.

The Creation is above all. I want to thank Ms Van Lent for appearing calm and relaxed. I think her qualifications scare me a little bit. I have some experience with HTML but this was a brilliant refresher since i didn't know the details like she taught them here. I watched difficult videos at normal speed first, then at 1.5x normal speed or faster to learn things quickly. It might seem easy to a lot of people but I thought it was tough. Good luck.

Thanks for this course. I think it's a pretty good introduction to HTML. I learned a bit about the history of the internet. I've already had some knowledge about html and web developement, so I found this course rather too basic for me, but, as it's mentioned in the introduction, it's aimed at those who had no idea what HTML. I think it's a nice way to get start in the world of web development. I enjoyed the part about accessibility. Cheers.

Five stars for emphasis on accessibility, explanation and detail of semantic elements.

Three stars for course content testing prior to publication and for omission of Linux. I use sftp on a command-line interface and did not learn in this course how to use mput for putting multiple HTML files and web assets onto my live site. There is no hyphen in "meta-data", nor are there two hyphens in "local area network.

Could have a bit harder assignments towards the end, but everything is explained well, and videos are the perfect length. Also the hosting part was difficult for me to follow and I never actually figured it out. I will try and go back when I have something worth hosting, but it didn't seem worth spending hours trying to figure it out when all I know how to do it write a short HTML document.

Thank you for the course! It was challenging in some way and VERY interesting. Besides, it is really stimulating in terms of self-learning as some aspects are mentioned but briefly. Personally I had some trouble with navigation, which made me spent a lot of time browsing the Internet for some information. But as they say no pains, no gains:)

Thank you, Colleen! Looking forward to CSS course.

I enjoyed the pace of this class however, I was not too keen on the way code is graded, e.g. for the final project of the 3rd week, although my code validated and the resulting page was identical to the instructor's mockup, it was still marked incorrect in the quiz and there was no way to determine exactly what the issue was. There has to be a better way to grade coding assignments.

Overall excellent course. I felt, maybe wrongly, that some of the terminology and information given expected you to grasp immediately and this slowed my progress somewhat as I had to re-watch or go online to 'simplify' what I was being told/asked.

Otherwise an excellent course which I would highly recommend for others looking to begin their journey in to HTML5 and CSS3.

Really basic course, great for everyone who haven't seen or written any code in their whole life. Teacher is surely likeable and content is easy to follow even during busy, full of work week. It teaches mostly about tags and how to put them together in proper way. I really liked constant reminders about accessibility, that definitely helps with making good habits.

I thought the class was good -- lectures and reading materials were very helpful. I would have enjoyed a slightly longer format with more assignments to try different things out and work with the other students. I've been experimenting on my own though so it's worked out. I've signed up for CSS and look forward to continuing forward with this course of study.

It was a great course overall but this course will leave you with a little knowledge of HTML 5 together with some doubts on how to use some tags (few) and where to use them. But it gave the idea of finding our solution by ourselves because doing research on your doubts teaches you a lot.

In a nutshell this course was excellent and I recommend this course.

It's a good course for beginner, lots of HTML elements are covered in detail during the classes and you will get a good knowledge about HTML. If you code along the course and do all the assignments to practice in the end of the course you will have solid foundation for continued learning and programming in HTML5. It is course that I recommend to enroll.

This Course Is very suitable for absolute beginners as in this course they provided vary deep knowledge from scratch(start) . They give knowledge about the web also give knowledge of web when web , browser, html and other things invented,

I mentioned some of the key topics below

*WWW, Html invention

*Browser Wars

*Accessability

*Hosting and Domains

The information provided by this course is good, let me undesrtand better the behaibor of a WEB page, Thanks !!!

PS. Please if is possible to you when a question apper in the middle of a video and the trainee doesn´t find the rigth ansewr after serveral attemps, it could be a good a idea get the answer by some option, just to fix the doubt.

Clear lectures. Good information. The instructor made clear the difference between mandatory elements and suggestions for good code. Downside: sometimes the extra readings were difficult to find, since links were provided at the beginning of the course, but without describing when certain chapters should be read before which quiz.

For me, the actual coding came too late. I suggest coding bits directly after instruction videos, instead of at the end. Also, I suggest recreating a larger website. The final assignment was very interesting. I only learnt about the <section> tag during that assignment. In all, not bad. I especially liked the big final puzzle.
