Multimedia Tag
- Used to embed video or audio.
- Browser automatically adds controls if the tag and media type are supported.
- Fallback (alternative) tags are needed for browsers that don't support the main tag(e.g. playing .avi / .mov files if the browser doesn't support it).

(0-100).
HTML Structure
- HTML is a markup language that structures web pages.
- Elements enclose content, defining its appearance and behavior.
- Elements have opening and closing tags (e.g.,
<p>
for paragraph). - Content placed between opening and closing tags forms the element.
- Attributes provide extra information about elements.
- Example attributes
class
andid
to target elements in style sheets. - A basic HTML document includes a doctype,
<html>
element that encloses all content, a<head>
element containing metadata (character set, viewport settings, title), and a<body>
element containing page content.
HTML Text Formatting
-
Physical tags effect the visual presentation (e.g., bold, italic).
-
Logical tags convey logical meaning (e.g., important text).
-
Physical Formatting Tags:
<b>
(bold),<i>
(italic),<u>
(underline),<s>
(strikethrough),<tt>
(teletype),<big>
(increase font size),<small>
(decrease font size),<ins>
(inserted text),<del>
(deleted text),<sub
(subscript),<sup
(superscript),<mark>
(mark/highlight). -
Logical Formatting Tags
<strong>
(important text) and<em>
(emphasized text).
Building a Digital Presence
- UX is important for businesses, especially early in development stages.
- Tools like wireframing, storyboarding, and prototyping help developers understand customers needs and verify the functionality.
- Wireframes are visual mockups to confirm system design.
- Storyboards show sequential action a user takes with the system.
- Mockups (mid-high fidelity) include design elements, colors, and content.
Elements of Design
- The fundamental aspects of visual design include color, line, value, space, shape, form, and texture.
- Color creates mood; line directs the eye; value affects lightness/darkness; space creates visual hierarchy; shape defines forms; form implies volume; texture affects appearance/feel.
Sketches and Wireframes
- Sketches are quick, freehand drawings to explore design ideas; Wireframes are more formal, presenting the structure of a website.
Creating Simple Wireframes for Websites
- Identify goals and user flow.
- Determine wireframe size for various screen types.
- Sketch user flows with page layouts, buttons, hyperlinks.
- Get feedback to improve design clarity, navigation, and content clarity.
Interaction Design
- Interaction design is a multidisciplinary field that ensures interactions between humans and devices are successful and enjoyable.
- Goal-Driven Design includes design first, separation of design from programming, and focus on user needs (personas).
- Usability is extremely important.
- Usability includes characteristics like learnability, memorability, efficiency, effectiveness, safety, and enjoyment.
GUI Design
- Factors for creating good UIs include usability (easy use and enjoyment), user context and task flows, brand consistency, gamification, and prediction of user needs.
Common Interaction Design Approaches
- Goal-driven design focuses on solving user problems and satisfying their needs, preceding technical considerations.
- Usability testing identifies issues in tasks involving user's actions.
- 5 dimensions of interaction design - words, visual representations, physical objects/space, time, and behavior- guide the designer to accommodate a variety of human reactions when interacting with a system.
HCI (Human-Computer Interaction)
- HCI is multidisciplinary emphasizing the design of technology and human-computer interaction.
- HCI focuses on user, technology, & interaction.
- HCI goals include usable, safe, and effective systems.
- Concepts like cognitive psychology, mental models, interface metaphors, and affordances are crucial for user understanding and successful interaction design.
