About this course

Understanding Introduction to HTML and CSS for your DSU credit.

What is Introduction to HTML and CSS?

Introduction to HTML and CSS is a course about how web pages are built and styled. Students learn the basic structure of HTML, how CSS controls appearance, and how the internet pieces together web content through things like URLs, DNS, and web domains.

How the course teaches you

The course is self-paced and online, built around video lessons, quizzes, assignments, and a final exam. Your grade is weighted 25% attendance, 25% quizzes, 25% assignments, and 25% final exam. When you complete it and the transcript credit posts, that credit is the one Dunlap-Stone University recognizes as General Education Technology, a general-education equivalency.

How it helps beyond the classroom

Working through HTML structure and CSS styling gives you a practical understanding of how web pages are built, plus the internet basics behind them, such as URLs, DNS, and domains. At DSU the credit counts toward a general-education requirement, so it applies to the core of Associate of Arts: Business Administration, Bachelor of Business Administration, and Bachelor of Arts: Psychology rather than sitting outside your degree. The skills are useful in any role that involves maintaining a website, reviewing web content, or communicating with people who do.

Skills you walk away with

Write basic HTML documents and elementsUse semantic HTML for clearer page structureApply CSS selectors, colors, margins, and paddingWork in HTML editors and coding environmentsExplain internet basics such as IP addresses, URLs, DNS, and ISPsUse accessibility and SEO-friendly HTML practicesHandle images and SVGs in web pages

Taking this course toward DSU

After you finish the course, UPI Study sends your transcript to Dunlap-Stone University. DSU's registrar then applies the credit as General Education Technology, under the articulation agreement and the course's assignment in Appendix 1. In your degree plan, this means the 3 credits fill a general-education requirement instead of an elective slot. Transfer credit at DSU is capped at 90 credits, or 75% of the degree, so this course counts toward that ceiling along with any other transferred credit.

Who this course is for

This course suits students who want to earn a general-education requirement at lower cost, such as adults returning to school, people finishing a degree who need one more gen-ed course, and career changers exploring web work. Because DSU recognizes the credit as General Education Technology and allows up to 90 credits (75%) to transfer, it can reduce the number of courses you must take at DSU. It is not a good fit if you need a course that requires live, scheduled participation, or if you expect a deep, multi-semester programming sequence; this is an introductory course covering structure, styling, and internet fundamentals.
