         In this lab, we had to make a list of some daily needs. Then we had to put it in order and make a specific group for each item/thing. It was mostly about organizing our list and putting it in an ordered list. This lab helped me in troubleshooting many problems and made me think a lot and finding ways to fix the problem. Besides, it took a lot of time to actually think of the stuffs that are my favorites and the things I want to include in my list. The only thing which i think was difficult is labeling the group and the items in the list in order. This lab is relevant to Web Design because someday there might be a situation where we have to make a list in order about our works or labs and then submit it online. Furthermore, i can use this skills in future to make a list of names of employees and other purposes in a job.

             In the first marking period, i slacked a little bit and didn't do my best. I know i can do even better than this. I came late to class several times and will try not to be late in this marking period. I did what my goal was but it could have been even better if i put in a bit more effort in my works. My goal was to get 90+ in every subject or if possible 95+ but i didn't achieve it completely which is little disappointing. 

                     I need to improve a lot in this marking period. I need to stay focused and be following instructions given by the teachers. I also need to be in class on time and prepared to get started without any complains. Most importantly i have to do every single work that i am supposed to do and be serious. Besides, I need to be motivated in everything i do in school and outside of school. These are the only ways that i can achieve my goals and dreams.

• Explain why paying attention to detail and following procedure are important elements of Web Design?

• Paying attention to details and following procedure are important elements of Web Design because by these are the elements which allows you to not make any silly mistakes and to be done with your work exactly the way you were assigned to. For example, when you are taking the PSAT test or some other major test, you are not supposed to proceed to the next section until you are told by the instructor and if you do, you will face the consequences without any warning. Similarly to the above situation, in Web Design, you should do what you're told to and not go beyond that because there can be several basic steps which you skip.

• Q. Explain, how do you take notes?

• There are several ways of taking notes. It really depends on the individual itself. Personally, i take notes by asking questions to myself of whether a sentence is important or not and asking myself why is it important. Also, i take down key words and concepts that is provided, not full sentences or listen for word clues from the teacher. Finally, after all the steps i review my notes over again to check if there's any mistake or not and if its complete or not.

                Similar to the previous lab, Lab 5, this lab is also about creating my own banner for my portfolio and uploading it online. I had to create a banner for my portfolio which consisted of my name and portfolio. Firstly, i started by creating my banner in Photoshop using different kinds of effects on the name and creating a good background which matched my nameplate. After that, i created an html document and inserted my heading and other necessary codes for the webpage. Then, i placed the banner in the html document after saving the file and uploaded it online using Filezilla.

                 This is relevant to Web Design because you must be able to create your own banner or logo for your works or identity. This skills can be very beneficial in the future in many ways, such as making your own business cards or creating logos for your own websites etc. Besides, it also saves you a lot of money and time, and not be relying on someone else to do it for you. This allows to get a better chance of getting employed and getting payed more.

Firstly, i started by creating a nameplate in photoshop using different kinds of effects on the name and creating a good background which matched my nameplate. After that, i created a html document and put in my heading and other necessary codes for a webpage. Then, i placed the nameplate in the html document and uploaded it online using Filezilla.

             In this lab, I created a webpage which contained a table of colors. It consisted of three rows which were the Color name, the hexadecimal number for the color and the color itself. The objective of the lab was to create a webpage which involved a table with many colors as possible and the name and the hexadecimal number/tag of the color. I created a table by using the "<table>" code and the "<tr>" known as table row and more. As usual, there's always something new to learn. I learned how to use new codes and create tables.

             I used the html file and filezilla to do this lab. This is relevant to Web Design because it helps you to know how a single hexadecimal number can change a color. This can be helpful in many ways. Such as, creating a background or making different font colors or marking a important statement by putting in different color. This skill can be helpful in future as you know what type of colors look good in certain themes or logos. The combination of colors you use can also explain how well a person is organized. This can help a lot in your job as well as other presentations.

            In this lab i created a webpage which consisted of other websites and also creating website links that linked to that website. This lab was all about creating a webpage which contained links of other websites or what web-designers call it "Hyperlinks". I learned new codes which allowed you to go to other websites by clicking on the link. I learned how to put hyperlinks in a text and an image. Likewise, i used the html file and filezilla software for the same purposes of creating a html document and uploading it online.

            This is relevant to Web Design because it allows you to provide the links for your blog or webpage, which can help identify the work of someone and give credit to the one who did the work. I can see this skills come very handy in the future because it can help me cite my works by linking to the copyright page for my works or citing my own website to get info about me. Besides, with these skills it also allows me to have a better chance of getting a job.

             This lab was all about creating a webpage which included a biography about myself and a picture of myself.Also, about my goals for this school year. Even though this lab is quite similar to lab 1, there's some new stuffs that i learned in this one in comparison to the previous lab. Unlike lab 1, this lab required pictures and backgrounds that must be included in the webpage, whereas lab 1 was just a simple webpage. I learned to how to put a picture and background color in the webpage by using different codes and also the font color. Besides, i also learned how to put the heading/title and to move my work to the center. I put my picture by using the codes/function keys to insert a picture and used to "<center>" key to place my work in the center of the page.

             This is relevant to Web Design because learning the rudiments will help me be successful in my work of web designing and will allow me to be able to take any challenges that i face. This skills will help me a lot in my future. It will allow me to be able to do my works online and express my ideologies and thoughts worldwide or also to be able to spread informations fast.

         In this lab i mostly learned about the basics of html and coding. I learned how to make a html document and use some codes to make a webpage. I also learned about the differences between HTTP and HTML and also about the differences between Internet and WWW. The objective of this lab was to a create a webpage by using codes and writing a reflection about the lab on the same webpage.
         
         In order to create a webpage, i used the html file to create a document by using the main codes that always used to create an HTML document (like !DOCTYPE, html etc.) Not only that, but i also used other codes which are meant to create a webpage. I used the html file and Filezilla software. The html file for creating a document and Filezilla for uploading it online in my teacher's webpage. This is relevant to Web Design because without learning this, there is no way one can become a web-designer without this skill. In the future, i can use this skills to create my own websites for businesses or other purposes, or i can also help my colleagues and employees with this skills which can be really helpful.
