</body>
</html>
```
- `<!DOCTYPE html>`: Declaration of the document type.
- `<html>`: The root element of an HTML page.

- `<li>`: List item within `<ul>` or `<ol>`.
**Session 6: Links**
```html
<a href="[Link] Example</a>
```
- `<a>`: Anchor tag used for creating hyperlinks.
- `href`: Attribute for specifying the destination URL.

<img src="[Link]" alt="Description of Image">
```
- `<img>`: Embeds images.
- `src`: Specifies the image file source.

```html
<form action="[Link]" method="post">
<label for="name">Name:</label>
<input type="text" id="name" name="name">

These are some fundamental topics covered in an introductory HTML class. HTML is a
vast subject, so students typically continue to learn about more advanced topics
like CSS (Cascading Style Sheets) and JavaScript to enhance their web development
skills.
