HTML: How to Build a Website
In this course, you will learn how to design and build a simple multi-page website using HTML. Through interactive, guided lab activities on Coursera, you will create web pages with clear structure and navigation, using headings, text, images and links to organise content effectively.
You will explore how HTML and other markup languages shape the structure and meaning of web content, and why semantic markup is essential for accessibility and good web design. Using browser developer tools, you will examine the Document Object Model (DOM) and see how changes to HTML affect what appears in the browser.
The course also introduces advanced HTML features such as forms, tables, embedded media and metadata. By applying these in hands-on labs, you will develop practical skills for creating accessible, usable and standards-compliant websites.
By the end of this course you will be able to:
1. Design and implement multi-page, accessible websites using semantic HTML and forms, tables, and media.
2. Explain the evolution of markup languages and the role of hypertext in web architecture.
