On page 675, I found a table that was about the classic programming languages. I figured this would be really helpful and lead me to a better understanding of the material I was reading, since chapter 13 is like a different language. I think you need a degree to just read about these different types of programming languages.
The one section I did understand was the HTML and XHTML information. I took a course at Seton Hill University that was dedicated to creating web pages and both HTML and XHTML. I will admit once I was done with this course, I promptly forgot everything that we learned. I figured I would never need it in my future career; of course this was before I decided to become a school librarian. If I had known this was my career of choice, I would have tried to remember everything I learned. Lucky for me I still have my notebooks somewhere in my house.
Even though I’m not sure I understood the information in Chapter 13, I really liked the examples they showed us, as well as the program development life cycle. This cycle is very beneficial and it is nice that they had a visual to accompany the text. They also went into great detail on each step which helped me to better understand the material being talked about. I am a visual learner and this break down was something that I might use in my future classroom for other topics.
I liked this chapter and found it actually sparked my memory from that class two years ago. Even though I am not really excited to create a website, I think it might be fun this time around. Who knows I might actually remember this stuff when I get a job or else I will be asking for student volunteers!
