Website Design and Styling Independent Assignment
Website Design and Styling Independent Assignment
You should have a file named index.html in your webpages repository. Edit the file name if it is not
index.html as it is CASE SENSITIVE and make sure it is in your webpages repository. If you do not have
index.html, complete the Webpages Setup before attempting the independent assignment. You must
include the Bare Minimums in all of your web pages (if you copied template.html, it has all of the bare
minimums). In this .html file you will link a separate style sheet called style.css, which will include most, but
not all, of the styling for your web page. Styling should come exclusively from properties and tags covered in
the E 115 Online Textbook. Content should be appropriate for any viewing audience, even your
grandmother.
Instructions
1. Include comments in your code to indicate where you feel you have answered #’s 2 – 6 (ex: 1 answered
here DO NOT USE # AS A SHORTHAND FOR THE WORD NUMBER). Be sure that your comments either
exist BEFORE or AFTER, never include it within another tag.
2. Include a title and a welcome message on your page (Hint: use both the title tag and a header tag)
3. You should have 2 paragraphs:
• Paragraph One should contain your name, year, major, and why you chose that major; if you are not
yet decided, write about a major(s) you are interested in. Write 3-5 sentences for full credit.
• Paragraph Two should be about your current job, a job you’ve had before or your dream job. Write
3-5 sentences for full credit.
• You should put a line break after each of the paragraphs and a horizontal rule after the second
paragraph.
4. Include a professional (or something you wouldn’t mind showing an employer) photo of yourself, that
when clicked on, will compose an email to your NCSU email address (Hint: this is a special type of link).
Remember to save any images or documents in your webpages repository and reference them that way
for credit.
5. Create an ordered list of at least 4 of the most interesting classes you have taken, are currently in, or
want to take during your time at NC State.
6. Create a table with two clubs or organizations at NC State that you are in, want to eventually join, or find
interesting. The first column should be the name of the club and the second column should include a link
to their website that will open in a new page when clicked on. The table should include appropriate
headers.
Don’t forget to link your style sheet in your index.html file and to include any necessary attributes for
CSS selectors.
In order to ensure that you receive full credit for this assignment, follow these guidelines:
• Do NOT use an HTML editor (Front page, Dreamweaver, SeaMonkey etc.) or a word processor.
o Use ONLY a text editor (Text Wrangler, Notepad ++)
• Create a web page that meets the above requirements and does not include more. You are welcome
to create other pages and put them in your webpages repository as long as they are not named
index.html.
