On the week before spring break, we learned about infographics. I find infographics very useful as they are a way to digest information in a more appealing manner. Instead of typing out a block of text with information, an infographic gets straight to the point while also grabbing the viewer’s attention. I found the poor design examples very informative as they really showcased what not to do. Having objects clumped up with different color schemes makes the information harder to process. One is left with more questions than answers.
In regards to web design, it is a completely new topic for me. I access the internet often like any other person, but I don’t pay much attention to all the words or symbols that make up the domain. Through the lecture I learned that HTML is what makes content appear, while CSS focuses on the layout and design of the webpage. I learned that every input given is important because a single typo can cause the line of code to not function properly. It seems like a tedious job but with practice I’m sure it becomes easier and more fluent.
