Trefnydd: Dr David Edward Perkins

This module provides an initial overview of key networking concepts to support an understanding of the Internet in general and the World Wide Web (WWW) in particular. Technologies, protocols and standards related to the WWW are explored in more detail to aid understanding of key factors in developing and delivering web content and applications. The module blends theoretical content with practical exposure to creating simple web content which is accessible and standards compliant.

Indicative content includes:

• Foundational Internet concepts; networks; OSI 7 layer model; basic network architecture; routing; domain names; email; ftp; telnet; HTTP; protocols and standards
• WWW concepts of client / server v. peer-to-peer, structure, remote access; Internet resources – types, content and architecture; URI, and URI resolution, URL;
• Search engines, search engine optimisation; search methods;
• Principles of structure: XML, HTML5, CSS, JavaScript; programming tools & environments; separation of concerns, use of on-line resources such as web-fonts, rich media, validators, CSS minification etc.
• New technologies e.g. mobile web and impact on accessibility / usability, user experience, security, netiquette etc.

dda

Equivalent to the range 60%-69%. Is able to analyse a task or problem to decide which aspects of theory and knowledge to apply. Solutions are of a workable quality, demonstrating understanding of underlying principles. Major themes can be linked appropriately but may not be able to extend this to individual aspects. Outputs are readily understood, with an appropriate structure but may lack sophistication.

trothwy

Equivalent to 40%. Uses key areas of theory or knowledge to meet the Learning Outcomes of the module. Is able to formulate an appropriate solution to accurately solve tasks and questions. Can identify individual aspects, but lacks an awareness of links between them and the wider contexts. Outputs can be understood, but lack structure and/or coherence.

rhagorol

Equivalent to the range 70%+. Assemble critically evaluated, relevent areas of knowledge and theory to constuct professional-level solutions to tasks and questions presented. Is able to cross-link themes and aspects to draw considered conclusions. Presents outputs in a cohesive, accurate, and efficient manner.

1. Understand the foundational web technologies and protocols.

2. Recognise the security, reliability and user experience (UX) implications of technologies used on the Web.

3. Explain how information is accessed and made accessible using the internet.

4. Demonstrate principles of web and client-side programming.
