Web Science is about the World-Wide web, or ‘Internet’, its history, evolution, and overall structure and topology. This course provides an overview of the logical elements of programming languages (e.g. HTML, JavaScript, Flash), information principles to design and create web-based user-centered experiences. Topics include the nature of digitization and its use to encode common data formats of text, audio, images, and video, followed by networking, client-server architectures, and the common protocols used to share these types of data freely across the world.
