Go out and look up a what all goes on a resume website. What can you find? Include an example image if possible.

A resume is a way to show all of your skills, accomplishments, or experiences to give to a potential employer to explain what type of person you are. It also includes basic things such as name or contacts information. Also, a resume website should include things such as your extracurricular
activities whether they are at school or not as well as your previous or ongoing education. When creating a resume website make sure to keep your information professional and dis include any extra information such as your pets.

Consider the quote below. What exactly do you think it means and how does it relate to Web Design?

I think this quote means that the way things look aren't always as simple as they seem. For example, in web design you have to type in a series of codes to have a certain outcome which could also be called how it works relating it to web design,.

Reflect on your learning this semester so far in this class. Think about the first day you walked in to this room until right now. What have you learned about Web Design? What have you learned beyond Web Design? Explain yourself.

Since the first day in web design I have learned a lot. Things like coding made no sense to me a couple months ago and now it is easy. This class i learned you need to be a good problem solver and to not give up because when creating web pages it is very easy to mess up due to the precise coding you need.

Tell me about your weekend. Give me details and photos!

This weekend I went to a party with my friends on Friday for Halloween. I dressed up as a doctor and it was pretty fun. Saturday I didn't do very much besides just hang out with my friends. On Sunday I sat around my house and watched football.
