Beyond the Walls – A New Blog

Several times a week I’ll find an interesting article or resource that I’d love to share with my Web Mastering kids but can’t find a good time to add it into the class. Most of the time the article deals with ideas a little too advanced for most of my students.

With that in mind, I’ve decided to create a sister blog to this one called “Beyond the Walls”. It’ll live at http://kevinlamping.com/beyond and will feature links that I think my students would find interesting. I’ll actually be promoting this website in my Web Mastering classes since the whole point is for students to use it.

If you’re interested in Web development or design, I recommend taking a look as this could also be for you. Or you could take a look just for fun anyways

P.S. I suspect a few students of mine will find their way to this page, so ‘Welcome Students!’

    Good luck Mr. Lamping, you were a great teacher. I learned quite a bit in your class. It’s kind of amusing that it took them a semester to give us someone who knows what they’re doing and he’s already gone.

    sidenote – looks like you’ve got an include error on a couple of pages.

    Yeah, it really sucks to lose one of the few people from Bastrop HS that knows what they are actually talking about. Don’t think I would have ever been taught CSS if you hadn’t come along. Good luck!

    Thanks for the comments. I understand the frustration with not having someone who is experienced in the industry, but this is not something that Bastrop is at fault for. In fact, you should thank them for taking a risk on me, and new teacher, instead of going with someone else who had many more years experience in teaching but may not have known the topic as well.

    If you’re interested in learning more about web development, I suggest you check out the following sites:

    Thanks again for leaving the comments. I’m glad to have had the chance to teach y’all.
