What did you like most about this course? Why?

I think the thing I liked most about this course is the fact that first of all, it introduced WordPress to me. Before this course I never knew WordPress was a thing and I’m really glad I know now and I will for sure be using it in the future. As for course content, I’m really glad this course taught me how to design websites and do things that personalize the websites such as adding backgrounds, header images etc. I really like that it kind of went over the foundational parts of creating a website on WordPress, and I feel as if the course got me really familiar with how to use a lot of the tools by the end of it! The reason why I think it was important for me to learn website design is because I’m going into videography, and learning things like embedding videos and such is really useful for when I eventually design a website of my own! It will really help me in the long run in terms of showcasing my work. I will eventually write blogs about my videos too so I can share my creative process to others!

If you were the instructor and could change/add something to this course, what would that be? Why?

First of all I would change/update some of the links in the quizzes because some of them are outdated and do not load, but that’s more of a technical thing. As for course content. I think adding some more in-depth instructions on creating a stand out web page would have been nice. Most of the pages created during this course follow a pretty standard format, but I wish we went a bit more in depth on ways/tools to personalize your posts and pages. Maybe stuff like wrapping images and text, etc. Also stuff like how to change link colors would have been pretty useful as well! The reason I think this would have been a nice add-on is because in the end, websites are all personalized to your style/taste. So I think teaching us more about the creative freedom side would have been really beneficial to a lot of students!
