Welcome to LBSCI 720 Spring semester of 2022!

Our class officially starts on January 28, the first day of the semester. This course is completely asynchronous. We do not have a synchronous portion. However, all the weekly learning materials are posted on this website with weekly assignments. Please take some time and familiarize yourself with this website.

This course covers the techniques of managing websites, using Dreamweaver to construct webpage, using Photoshop to manipulate images, and using Animate to create motion pictures. Each week covers basic two parts – a learning module and an assignment. In some weeks, a quiz is assigned to check your knowledge of basic coding skills.

Please follow the directions below to find your way around the course and to get started.
