  Standard Set Answer:

  I've always had an interest in html, but have never done anything with it professionally. I'm a bit rusty with html and I think this course would help shake off the rust and help me learn how html has progessed since I last used it. I'm really not sure what is involved in helping with the study group organization. So I guess I'll respond to that with a maybe.

  What made you interested in this topic?

  I started working on projects at work that involved dealing with the web developers and soon I learned some very basic html coding (bullets, numbering, hyperlinking). The more I got comfortable doing it the more I was asked to be the technical point of contact for my department. I find coding to be very interesting and fun so I wanted to learn more about it.

  
  What do you hope to achieve by participating?
  I'm truly a beginner and I'm hoping to not only learn code but to understand how HTML is used. I'm amazed as to the various things that HTML controls and I want to see what has been done and whats possible.
   
  Are you interested in helping with the study group organization?
