Second year computer engineering students attended a workshop on “HTML Basics” on 23rd July 2016 in Don Bosco College of Engineering, Fatorda – Goa. The workshop was organized by C-CODES computer students association. A total of 58 students participated in the workshop. The workshop started at 9.00 am with a hands-on session in the Computer Department laboratories.
HTML is a cornerstone technology used to create web pages.HTML is a markup language for describing web documents (web pages). HTML stands for Hyper Text Markup Language. A markup language is a set of markup tags. HTML documents are described by HTML tags. Each HTML tag describes different document content. The markup tells the Web browser how to display a Web page’s words and images for the user. Each individual markup code is referred to as an element (but many people also refer to it as a tag). Some elements come in pairs that indicate when some display effect is to begin and when it is to end.
The workshop covered the basics of HTML like creating and personalizing a web page that included inserting images, creating basic hyperlinks and email links, adding photos and graphics to a page, creating paragraphs on webpages, HTML formatting and styles, frames in HTML etc. The students learnt to create structured documents by denoting structural semantics for text such as headings, paragraphs, lists, links, quotes and other items. The students designed their own HTML forms and webpages as part of their practical’s during the workshop.

Mr. Joshua Salema, Mr. Pranoy Paes, Mr. Akeel Phaldessai and Miss Vaishnavi Kamat were the resource faculty for the day. They are the students of Don Bosco College of Engineering (Computer Engineering) from the batch 2012-2016. Asst. Prof. Merwyn D’Souza was the coordinator for the workshop.
