Week 8: Midterm and Responsive Design

Now that we are halfway through the semester, I can see my CSS and HTML knowledge improving. All of the practices, notes, and challenges have helped me practice strategies and learn new techniques. When working on the Midterm Drafts and learning responsive design, I can see my growth from my previous class. To me learning responsive design for me was a major step towards making more professional sites.

My Goals and What I’ve Learned This Week

This week, I feel as though my knowledge was definitely tested. I am grateful to have learned so much about flex box and grid, but it did not come without difficulties.

Applying Responsive Design

This is such a full week! Finishing responsive design for the Sac Writers group and the Zen Music was quite a challenge and we aren’t even done with the actual design yet! It takes such great amount of patience and re-editing, googling and re-editing.

All the New Subjects Start Now

Hello once again! I am just finishing week 6 of my semester, and wow, everything is starting to pick up around this time in these past 2 weeks that has already passed. I have had to finish around 2 big assignments in my AAD52 and AAD60 classes. Now my AAD86 is starting to pick up on the learning material now too. Having to juggle four different classes is starting to show its true colors.

Color Palettes & Grids

Last week, there were some interesting “Eureka!” moments. Both concerned color theory and CSS grids. Come, let me tell you what I mean…

Grid etc

From Float to Flex, from Flex to Grid, there are tons of layout skills to be learned.

Micro Site, grids & flips

Never heard the words”Micro Site” until I saw the mid-term. Google it and found that “A Microsite is a website, distinct and separate from an organization’s main site, that delivers more focused, relevant content about a specific topic or to a targeted audience or even just requiring a defined action. ” per Microsite.
