I have learned many things from the CTAP
Program. First, I learned what FTP means.
Sometimes I would spend numerous hours
working on my web pages and then proceed to
FTP my work and nothing would be changed
from the local to the remote system. Lots of
frustration with FTP. Next, I learned how to
copy and paste from page to page & to my
power point presentation. Why retype…when
it’s already there! I learned how to insert
links and web resources to my work. And
finally, I learned that creating web pages was
easier than I thought!
