What are you doing for Thanksgiving? Do you have any traditions? Go in to detail about your plans for the 5 day weekend.

My family is celebrating Thanksgiving with our friends. There coming over for lunch and dinner. I might go black Friday shopping with my brothers, I'm not for sure though. My family has no traditions on thanksgiving. My brothers came home from college so we'll probably go to dinner a few times. I also might have friends over on Tuesday after work. The rest of the week we'll probably just relax and I might have my friends over again over the weekend.

Go out and look up a what all goes on a resume website. What can you find? Include an example image if possible.

They put on a section about them in their website. Some also list their experiences and their specialties. Another common thing they have are a navigation bars. The navigation bar list everything I said earlier, and  references, contact information, and samples of their work.  There are also links to social medias. Most of them use duller colors and keep it professional looking.

Define 'User Experience'. What does it mean and how does it relate to web design?

User experience is how someones feels towards something. The better user experience you have would mean you would probably enjoy the website more. If you were using a website and the navigation bar didn't work you probably would have a bad user experience. If the navigation bar were to be fixed you're user experience would probably increase for the better. I've had a bad user experience with the Google drive app. It doesn't let me upload pictures without wifi. This has become a problem because my phone doesn't always connect to wifi and I need pictures for multiple classes.

Consider the quote below. What exactly do you think it means and how does it relate to Web Design?

I think It means that design takes work. It's not just the image of what it looks like. It is what went into coming up with it that is important. A website isn't just the finished project. Once you see what goes into making it you will see that the real importance of the finished website is the code. Without it your website would be nothing.

Reflect on your learning this semester so far in this class. Think about the first day you walked in to this room until right now. What have you learned about Web Design? What have you learned beyond Web Design? Explain yourself.

The first day I walked in I knew nothing about web design. I didn't know that websites were created through codes. I learned about HTML and CSS codes. My skills have improved throughout the semester, but I have a lot more to learn. I have also learned problem solving skills. If I don't understand something I search for it and ask the teacher as a last resort. I hope to learn how to make my websites look more complex by the end of the semester.

Tell me about your weekend. Give me details and photos!

On Friday I went to cross country state. I went with my friends Natalie and Kylie. It was extremely cold, but beside that it was fun. When we got back to school we got lunch at Sonic. Later that night I went to my friend Ariana's with a few more people. We passed out candy to kids then just hung out in her basement. I didn't do anything else for the rest of the weekend.
