Description

For courses on Web Pages, Computer Applications, World Wide Web, Computer Applications in Business/Computer Science, Business, Continuing Education.

This comprehensive courseware book gives students a rich and accessible introduction to creating Web pages using Microsoft FrontPage 2000. It covers all the skills necessary to take the Expert Microsoft Office User Specialist (MOUS) Certification Exam for FrontPage 2000 via hands-on exercises and examples. Going well beyond the “do-it-yourself” books that simply teach how to create Web pages, it also provides concrete information about the importance of design and functionality of Web pages.


Features

  • NEW - Coverage of Microsoft FrontPage 2000—Covers all performance based objectives and non-performance based objectives for the FrontPage 2000 MOUS exams. Adds 5 additional performance-based objectives for the FrontPage 2000 proficient Exam, and 12 additional objectives for the Front Page 2000 expert exam.

    • Addresses the specific criteria that will prepare students for the Microsoft Office User Specialist exam(s) in FrontPage 2000. Ex.___

  • NEW - Updated to reflect enhancements and modifications to FrontPage 2000—e.g., the integration of the FrontPage Explorer and FrontPage Editor into one program; user customized pre-designed themes; page element placement using absolute and relative positioning; quick and easy code insertion in HTML View; easier database access and incorporation; new Page View for page editing and viewing; new Reports View that allows users to analyze and summarize their Web; a format painter (similar to other Office applications); tighter integration of Office documents with FrontPage.

    • Gives students training in the most current features of FrontPage 2000. Ex.___

  • NEW - Updated screen captures—Reflects the application interface, new dialog boxes and the use of Internet Explorer 5.0.
  • Step-by-step exercises—Supported with plenty of illustrations. Lesson steps are well defined and supported by figures detailing the desired lesson step results.

    • Takes students systematically through each skill. Ex.___

  • A “running” HTML Website—Created on a project-by-project basis, with students learning and applying new skills to their own Website. Students create an actual, evolving website, adding the tags as they are created in the lessons. When they finish the book, they will have created, modified, and thoroughly tested a FrontPage Website similar to a real-world situation.

    • Give students the opportunity to apply their skills to the real world. Ex.___

  • The underlying HTML code—Although FrontPage creates the HTML code for the user, it is still important to learn the HTML code itself because even the best WYSIWYG editor can't cover all the HTML tags. New HTML tags are created on a frequent basis and students learn that they can type in the tags directly in the FrontPage Editor.

    • By understanding the code that is automatically generated by FrontPage, students better understand how to implement new code on their own. Ex.___

  • Coverage that goes beyond MOUS criteria—e.g., Project 10 is dedicated to teaching students how to use Microsoft Image Composer, the graphic-editing program included with FrontPage 98. Also, students learn how to set field validation rules for form fields, manipulate images within FrontPage, create lists, and utilize many other skills throughout the book not required by the MOUS criteria.
  • Two Project Challenges—At the end of every project.

    • Encourages students to practice the skills learned in the lessons and strengthens their comprehension of FrontPage. Their new level of competency with the application inspires students to try their skills in real world circumstances. Ex.___

  • A Web Portfolio—At the end of every project.

    • Encourages students to add content, structural modifications, advanced Web development functions, etc. related to the lessons in the project. When students finish the book, they have a personalized, functioning, completed work that reflects their level of proficiency with FrontPage. Ex.___

  • Three appendices on advanced topics—Covers more advanced topics related to Web development and explains how to integrate these technologies with FrontPage, where possible—integrating Office 97 applications with the Web; how to create an inline, embedded, and external style sheet using Windows and FrontPage; an overview of Java and JavaScript with an emphasis on the strengths of each language and their potential uses in Web development.
  • An accompanying CD—Contains all of the data files used in the book lessons; plus several Web-related computer programs that can be used to create and modify graphics, Web pages, and add advanced Web development functions.

    • Many of these programs can be used to enhance a student's FrontPage Web site. Ex.___

  • Accompanying website—www.prenhall.com/zimmerman. Provides links to numerous Websites related to Web development, including online tutorials, graphics libraries, advanced language resources, and many other Web development resources. The site will be frequently updated to provide the latest information and sites of interest to Web developers.

    • Provides students and instructors with convenient access to current and developing thinking and practices regarding Web development. Ex.___
