Images and links

HTML programming project

Unit Summary

In this unit pupils will explore how websites are displayed within a browser using HTML and CSS. They will examine how websites are requested and delivered to our computer via the internet and the WWW. They will create the structure of a website using HTML and change the styling using CSS.

Lesson Summary

You will learn to build accessible web pages that include images and connect to other pages.

Key Notes

  • Accessibility is a design approach that ensures what is being created is usable by all, regardless of individual needs.
  • Web pages use images to visually enhance and support the content being presented.
  • Images on web pages can be made accessible using the alt attribute.
  • Web pages can connect to other web pages using hyperlinks.

3 Quick Questions (With Answers)

1. Describe the system or process from this lesson in clear steps.

Accessibility is a design approach that ensures what is being created is usable by all, regardless of individual needs. Web pages use images to visually enhance and support the content being presented.

2. Define this computing term and give one practical example. 'accessibility'

consideration of design so that what is created is usable by everyone. Add one real device or system example to prove understanding.

3. Correct this common computing misconception.

Mistake: If someone cannot view an image on a web page it can be ignored as text on the page will be sufficient. Correction: Images are used in web pages to provide the reader with extra context. By not describing them in some way the reader might not understand the information in the same way than if it was viewed.
