  9. Every JC user has a ‘w’ drive. Any file saved on the ‘w’ drive is accessible from the internet. For example, this powerpoint can be accessed here: http://www.jc.edu/users/jbear/pptteacherpages.pptx • JC’s webserver, and most webservers, are configured so that a file named index.html or index.htm will be the default file. So, as soon as you save an html file named index into your W: drive, your webpage will be accessible. On JC Campus

  10. Sometimes, when creating web pages regardless of yourmethod, you are going to have to look at the source code. The source code is organized using tags. • A tag is a word or letters between carets. So, <body> is a tag as is <style>. • Most tags have a closing tag such as </body>. The idea is that everything between the opening and closing tag is controlled by that tag. Tags

  11. Edusites uses Wordpress • All of you received an invitation from me to join wordpress and an invitation to become an editoron jsbear.wordpress.com • To get there now, go to jsbear.wordpress.com Wordpress

  12. Once at jsbear.wordpress.com, navigate to your page • At the bottom of your page, there should be an ‘edit’ link. Click it. • Now you are in edit mode. Wordpress

  13. You can type in the edit window just like you would in any word processor. • For more features, click the button furthest to the right labeled ‘kitchen sink’. • If you hold your mouse over any of the toolbar options, the tooltip will tell you what each of them does. Editing

  14. To insert pictures, videos, or sound, click the ‘add media’ button. • To add a poll, click ‘add poll’. • To add a custom form, click ‘add a custom form’ Pictures, polls, forms

  15. To create a new page, click ‘add new’ on the left-hand side. • When creating that new page, pay attention to ‘page attributes’ on the right-hand side of the page. New Pages

  16. To create a link, highlight text and then click the ‘link’ button. • You can link either to a URL (somewhere on the web) or to a wordpress page Links

  17. Now it’s your job to make your page • Use the rubric found on ‘about these pages’ to guide you • Be creative • This powerpoint can also be found by going to the tech page on the wordpress page Making the Product
