WOW WOW WOW! I know it was different but HTML is a different language. They are new abbreviations associated with it, which sounds a little like texting language. I enjoy the logic sense of html; for every beginning, there must be an ending, and if there isn't it won't work out. I know that is the math side of me, but how can I repress it. The TryIt website was so helpful because you can immediately see what is working and what isn't, then it's just working the puzzle until it's fixed.
Our school provides us with Internet software to work on our own website for school. I have has so many different conflicts with taking the class but have always wanted to make one, to give students one additional outlet for help. I have used Dreamweaver software to build an on-line portfolio when I was in my undergrad program at Madison, and found it much easier to work with than the one the school district provides. This is why I am excited to be able to know and use the html aspect of editing because I feel it is much easier to troubleshoot that way than in the standard view mode. I feel this will allow me to create a better website which is easier to go through and interact with. After working on the group assignment this week, I am much less scared to use html. Let's see what is next week.

As a "reformed" (ie former) math teacher myself, I agree with your observations. There is certainly a logic to HTML and debugging a program is problem solving. And, yes, knowing HTML will help you troubleshoot websites created with an editor.
I am glad that you found the Try It website helpful.
