Worked example

Define HTML and explain its role in web development. Also differentiate between HTML tags and HTML elements. (7 marks)

HTML (HyperText Markup Language) is a standard markup language used to create web pages and web applications for displaying content on the World Wide Web. HTML plays the fundamental role in web development by providing the basic structure and content of web pages through a system of markup tags. HTML tags are keywords enclosed in angle brackets that define how content should be displayed, for example <h1> and </h1>. HTML elements consist of an opening tag, content, and closing tag together, for example <h1>Welcome</h1> is a complete heading element. The main difference is that tags are the markup codes while elements include both the tags and the content between them.

Common mistakes

Students often confuse WWW with Internet - WWW is a service that runs on Internet
Writing HTML tags without proper opening and closing brackets
Confusing URL with domain name - URL is complete address including protocol
Not memorizing exact textbook definitions for WWW, HTML and web browser
Mixing up different HTML tags and their purposes in answers

Quick recap

Web development involves creating websites using HTML for structure, CSS for styling, and JavaScript for interactivity. Static websites show fixed content while dynamic websites change content based on user interaction. Web browsers display web pages by interpreting HTML code, and web servers store and deliver web pages to users. Always use exact STBB textbook definitions in exam answers.
