 During the course, you will learn how to use Open Web Technologies such as HTML5 Canvas, CSS Transitions, Timing control for script-based animations, Web Sockets and other JavaScript APIs to create browser based multiplayer games. We will discuss and compare different methods of real-time animation, implementing game loop, structure of the code or communication between the players. Logic of our games will be based on an engine we will write – it will be able to animate sprites, detect collisions, add basic physics to our characters and much more. Finally, you will learn how to run your game as a desktop application outside the browser on MacOSX, Linux & Windows, or as a native application on your mobile device. And how to sell it in the appstores. For more information, please read a more detailed course description.
Extension of the early bird rate (at 145€) until Monday 24 October! We'll switch to the full rate (225€) after that date.
 Using HTML5, CSS and JavaScript, students will learn as they build increasingly comprehensive media players and solutions. By learning about the underlying technology, the aim is that the student will understand the full potential of the media, the tools and the tricks of the trade. Armed with this sound knowledge of HTML5 audio and video and its potential, students will be able to confidently create cross-browser HTML5 based audio/video solutions.

Closely linked with HTML5, W3C's SVG (Scalable Vector Graphics) standard is quickly becoming a key, non-proprietary technology that every Web developer needs to master in the future, especially when creating "rich", interactive sites. A case in point: SVG will be available in Internet Explorer 9. That means that soon all major browsers will include native support for this exciting technology. The course ran in January 2011 and is now closed. This four week course taught by W3C experts introduced SVG and enabled people to learn: - How do you create great-looking graphics using SVG?
- How do you transform graphics, add borders, gradients and more?
- What can you do with SVG better than any other technology?
An optional further 2 weeks covered animation and user interaction.
The course is for you if: - you are familiar with Web site design and creation;
- you have at least basic familiarity with editing HTML and/or XML source code;
- you are familiar with terms like "bitmap", "dithering", "anti-aliasing", ""RGB", "dots per inch", and "pixels" (or can find out them before the course starts);
- you want to be able to include great-looking dynamic graphics in your designs.
SVG is not an alternative to things like JPEG, GIF or PNG. Nor is it an alternative to CSS. It's SVG. It's different, it's exciting - it's time you knew about it! Full details of the course are available. The course will be taught by Professor David Dailey of Slippery Rock University in Pennsylvania. Professor Dailey has written extensively about the subject for more than 6 years, and is continuing work on the SVG Primer. The full price of the course is €165 Now that the course has closed, if you would like to be sure to receive notification of registration opening for future courses. Please subscribe to the mailing list. (No spam, we promise, just messages about training at W3C, see the archive).

| Skip LoginThe W3C offers a number of online training courses through this portal. All courses follow a similar format: weekly modules include 'lectures' (i.e. instructive texts), usually with links to further resources, as well as some sort of activity. This might be a quiz or a Tutor Marked Assignment. A discussion forum allows participants to discuss the course with each other and with the instructors. Instructors are always either some of those involved directly with the creation of the relevant W3C standard or others who have a close association.
