I have never been very good with computers so I didn’t think I would ever be able to code. I didn’t know anything about it, and I thought I would be very bad at it. A couple of years ago I took Fundamentals of Digital and Online Media. We worked on codding in that class, but I didn’t really pay much attention because I thought I wouldn’t understand it. The next semester I took a writing for the internet class for my minor in English. That is where I learned I really liked codding, and I was even kind of good at it. It was so much easier than I thought it would be. After having such a good experience in that class I decided I wanted to learn more about coding so I signed up for this class, and I am really enjoying it!
A website that I really enjoy and I am inspired by is the ModCloth website. ModCloth is an online store that sells clothes and other items. I really like the website because it is well designed. It is well organized and uses bright colors that look really nice. It also uses lots of links and pictures.
I’m taking FDOM right now, and I think that class and this class are really going to work well together, and it should be kind of easier that I’m taking them at the same time.
I was also a little worried about the class but the structure of the class really helps, I think. Each assignment builds on another so you don’t have to start completely new. I also really like Modcloth although I am not usually on the website I like the stuff they offer.
I felt the exact same way about coding at the beginning! I still am a little uncomfortable with it, but hey we have the whole semester to learn. P.s. Mod Cloth is one of my favorite online stores.
Thanks for sharing that site! The color scheme goes well with the site and the pictures. It’s effective that a drop down list comes up when the mouse is hovered over the words.
