[Year 12 IT Apps] U3-O1:Dreamweaver CC

Thu Mar 6 12:42:29 EST 2014

Having taught the majority in Year 11 and this year now year 10 CSS layout with the box model my expectation is using this
Having said that the study design does not stipulate so I do not penalize those who use tables for structure. They still need to show understanding of cross browser testing and CSS formatting to achieve the highest levels

I don't let them use Dreamweaver templates but spry menu bar (now defunct in DWCC) ok so long as they alter the formatting to suit the customer/case study. Obviously need to review this with DWCC

I allow students to use the basic Dreamweaver templates but have an expectation that these will be only used as a base and they must heavily modify them to show understanding of HTML and CSS functions. I also let them know they cannot download new templates and use them as this does not show understanding of html or CSS.

I feel there is no chance in teaching them the skills required to build a box model CSS layout including issues such as relative positioning, different browser compatibility with the box model, the difference between a class and id selector etc. etc…  in the time allocated to this outcome.

The other choice would be to use tables to layout your page. This does not fit with standards and would be teaching the students bad practice.

If people were interested in using a the box model to layout the page.. this is a good web site. http://learnlayout.com/

Any thoughts?

I would expect my students to create .DWT templates for their website to show they understand the importance of consistency across pages, and how best to achieve that consistency. But I would have them create the template, not use the DW templates.

I teach them how to create templates in Expression Web (the format and DWT extension is identical to Dreamweaver’s) .

Hello –

just a quick question, not that I would do this because I’d feel guilty, but can the students use templates in Dreamweaver.

I’ve steered away from them, but I was just curious for the future.

:)

Thank-you, Litsa
