In this book, there are instructions about how to set up Oak account, basically how to start. There also basic codes that do certain things. The first two weeks are little bit hard for the students. Usually by the third week, they start to grasp the idea and they get more comfortable as we proceed. Additionally, it helps them to know that we, tutors, have been through the process as former students and this encourages them.
Some students really are into learning HTML and get beyond the mindset of learning it for the class.
Some of them appreciate the value of it either towards the end of the class or after they finish it or graduate from school. A couple of students were able to display their work in their job interviews which they felt proud. I knew HTML coding before I took the class last fall. Learning the theories was more effective this way, because we interact with each other and Nina and Dr. Lee. I should say that I realized how much I have learned after I was out of the class.
