Adding Style with CSS

The course was very straightforward, clear and concise. I especially like the last chapter on "CSS layout" where you actually walk a person through setting up a basic template for a web site. You very clearly showed how a developer can approach building a stylesheet based on the properties just learned.

The lessons
were well constructed and the examples and practice problems were
especially useful in solidifying my understanding of CSS.

You have learned how to create Web pages using HTML. Now you need to know how to make your Web pages look great! This course teaches you the basics of Cascading Style Sheets through reading materials, interactive quizzes, and exercises.

During the course, you will progressively build the layout of a small Web site step-by-step. You will take a sample Web site from plain to fabulous!

CSS allows Web designers to do things with their Web pages that are not possible with HTML alone. It also allows Web designers to create the layout and formatting of a complete Web site in a single style sheet. CSS works together with HTML to specify the visual appearance of a Web page.

Adding Style with CSS is a self-paced, downloadable course designed to help you to style Web pages. The course is designed so that you can take it with or without instructor support. Some people prefer to learn on their own; others like to be able to ask for assistance when they need it. If you take the course with instructor support, you'll receive 60 days of email access to a qualified instructor. It's like having your own personal tutor available to you at any time!
