Empathy

What role does empathy play in your life and how has it helped you?

I wish that I could say that I always act on my empathy, but after listening to Daniel Goleman's TEDTalk, I'm reflecting on all the instances when I could have done more. When I have a preexisting connection with someone, I think I tend to be more empathetic, but in instances where I'm interacting with strangers, I think my empathy levels decrease. Thinking about instances that are common in a city, I feel like I could especially do better with this: a driver who cuts me off, someone asking for money on a streetcorner, or even someone who seems a little grumpy. Having empathy for individuals is vital -- we don't know what's going on for that person, and we have the power to react in a way that will build someone up.

Capstone Day 1

HTML and CSS: Design and Build Websites, Chapters 1-2

1. On a website, what is the purpose of HTML code?

HTML is the language that we use to set up the structure of the webpage. It will include headings, paragraphs, titles, etc.

2. What is the difference between an element and a tag?

Although tag and element are sometimes used interchangeably, a tag and the content inside tags is an instance of an element. One tag will be at the beginning of some content, and the corresponding tag will be at the end of said content. A tag set is like a container that holds something (usually text) that we see on the webpage.
