Lesson 13 Topics That Require More Attention

  1. Review the differences between using element selectors, class selectors, and id selectors in CSS.

  3. Forking vs. cloning a GitHub remote repository.
  4. Pushing and pulling changes to/from a remote repo.
    1. Establishing a remote repo or branch from a local project.
  5. Live coding:
    1. If you saved the HTML page from class 12, use that as a starting point for adding some CSS.
    2. Recall the tedious aspects of HTML design from class 12. Note how CSS streamlines the process.
    3. Save and commit changes, then push to a remote GitHub repository.

Studio (TF Notes)

  1. Common student stumbling blocks:
    1. Some students get confused trying to follow the instructions, especially as they alternate between the Control and Pilot roles. Be ready to provide clarification.
    2. Some students will be intimidated by merge conflicts. Note that these happen all the time, and they are not that big of a deal.
  2. This studio requires students to work in pairs. If you have an odd number of students, you will need to fill in that gap yourself.
