An introduction to the various technologies behind the internet, including HTML, CSS, TCP/IP, DNS, and a whole lot of other acronyms. The course will be roughly divided into two parts: one on web page creation, and the other on internet infrastructure along with a little history and culture. Depending on the background of the participants, we may also do a little JavaScript, the programming language that makes web pages "do" things. Further internet related work at Marlboro (such as the Web Programming class) builds on the material in this course.
