Workshops on the World Wide Web (WWW) for the beginner and slightly
more advanced user will be conducted monthly this spring by Arlington
Courseware. Two sessions of each workshop are now open. Both
are eight week distance-learning workshops conducted entirely by
HTML mail.*
MAKE THE LINK WORKSHOP: WORLD WIDE WEB FOR EVERYONE
This workshop focuses on how to gain maximum advantage from the
Web. It covers how to gain access to the WWW, linking to and
interpreting URLs, distinguishing between different browsers,
navigating and searching, organizing your bookmarks, designing
your own home page with HTML and installing it on a server,
utilizing principles of good Web design, and choosing between and
using HTML editors.
The cost is $20. For further information, see the Make the Link
Workshop home page:

TUNE IN THE NET: GLOBAL REACH FOR THE 21st CENTURY
This is the sequel to Make the Link, but may be taken
independently by the more experienced beginner or intermediate
user. It concentrates on Internet interactivity and assisting
the more experienced user in making his or her Web pages into a
standout interactive site. It covers prototyping Web pages with
page generators and site builders, making HTML forms, using
client-side image maps, customizing pages with frames and HTML
4.0, making content interactive with layers, dynamic HTML,
Cascading Style Sheets (CSS), scripting with JavaScript, and
utilizing push media, such as Netscape Netcaster and Microsoft
Active Channels.
The cost is $40. For additional information, see the Tune In the
Net Workshop home page:

The cost of both workshops taken together is $55.
