I am a bit disappointed with myself, but only a tiny bit. This is because I had high hopes that I would enjoy my Web Design class, but at the end of the day, I’ve realized that I’ve been slacking quite a bit. I still get my work done don’t get me wrong, but I just lack the motivation and excitement I’ve had with my previous classes when it comes to getting the work done. I’m guessing I’ve found the part of Graphic Design that I can scratch out in terms of possible career fields I would want to do in the future.

This is my third week in the class and I have learned quite a bit. I felt that learning Web Design was difficult and not interesting at first, but once I sat down to do it and start coding and seeing the changes in action was the part that was fun for me. Maybe I’ll change my mind in a distant future about Web Design and take the time to research and learn more about it, but as of right now it is not something that catches my attention.

However, I will go on and mention the importance of Web Design. For starters, Web Design is important to online marketing as many businesses and companies create their websites to advertise and sell their products. A good website design reflects on the company’s image, message, and whether it is trustworthy enough to buy from them. Many people these days use the web to gather their information and do research for things like projects, school work, and the likes so an informative website needs to be interesting enough to maintain the viewer’s attention as well as be factual and easy to navigate. Essentially, the CSS coding is going to be a huge help to make your HTML code look interesting and appealing.
