LIS 390W1A - Lab 2: Shuler's "Check It Out" Exercises

Overview

For this lab, we will be going over the "Check It Out" exercises in the Schuler reading. After we have completed this, I would like you to write a 250-500 word HTML document that follows the format we used in Lab 1 but includes the following information at the top of the file:

<!DOCTYPE html
PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN"
"http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd">
	

And the following meta tag in the <head> section:

<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-8"></meta>
	

Also, please use the following syntax for your html tag:

<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" xml:lang="en" lang="en">
	

In this document I would like you to discuss what you learned by doing this lab. What was unexpected, what was new, what was interesting? What did you already know?

I would also like you to discuss what you learned from the readings from the last two classes, and what you learned from last week Wednesday's class about how computers work.
