3 Easy Steps to Building Your Web Page!

STEP ONE:
ACCESSING YOUR NETWORK FOLDER

We suggest that before you begin, you get into the habit of storing your papers, projects, powerpoints, pictures and any other course materials to your designated network folder. You will also store all of your web pages in this folder. Also, keeping your folder organized will help you be more efficient as you place more and more material in the folder. You may consider a seperate folder for each year of school and within those folders seperate folders for images and documents. For example: "documents_2005" and "images_2005".
