Week 5

I. Lesson Objectives

1 The instructor will cover the major areas of advantages and disadvantages of the students' evaluations. The instructor will discuss the narrowing of the scope of study on how the individual church can develop a ministry of outreach and teaching by investigating the approaches of various churches for their good and not so good web pages. This would require a system of evaluation to be developed for their evaluation of effectiveness. The students will write their own system of evaluation.

2. The instructor will teach basic HTML (Hypertext Markup Language) would be taught in providing specification used to develop World Wide Web home pages. Any question on technical and HTML advanced web paging would be handled on a one on one basis or by pointing the student to the appropriate internet web pages. The student would write a sample home page and e-mail it to the instructor or place the sample home page on their own internet space.
