Slideshow with image maps (image maps change with slides) The Basics of SEO Friendly Design and Development - The Beginners Guide to SEO. Search engines are limited in how they crawl the web and interpret content.

A webpage doesn't always look the same to you and me as it looks to a search engine. In this section, we'll focus on specific technical aspects of building (or modifying) web pages so they are structured for both search engines and human visitors alike. This is an excellent part of the guide to share with your programmers, information architects, and designers, so that all parties involved in a site's construction can plan and develop a search-engine friendly site.

In order to be listed in the search engines, your most important content should be in HTML text format. Images, Flash files, Java applets, and other non-text content are often ignored or devalued by search engine spiders, despite advances in crawling technology. Seeing Like a Search Engine Many websites have significant problems with indexable content, so double-checking is worthwhile. Whoa! That’s a lot of monkeys, and just headline text? Keyword Abuse.

Empirical Research Methods[Enter Course] In this course you will learn how to conduct research using empirical methods, which rely on observation and experimentation.

This course is appropriate for those interested in using empirical research methods in their field, particularly students in the social and behavioral sciences. Topics include the formulation of the question to be investigated and the of resulting hypotheses, the collection of data and the analysis of the data collected, and the interpretation and study of analysis results. We assume that learners entering Empirical Research Methods (ERM) have taken at least a semester or year-long course in statistics and, through this or some other experience, have been exposed to the following concepts: If learners have not had such exposure, they can follow the appropriate links into the OLI introductory statistics course to review the required concepts. In-Depth Description Each of the modules follows the format of: Causal and Statistical Reasoning - Open and Free. Argument Diagramming. Statistical Reasoning. Statistical Reasoning [Enter Course] Overview: Statistical Reasoning introduces students to the basic concepts and logic of statistical reasoning and gives the students introductory-level practical ability to choose, generate, and properly interpret appropriate descriptive and inferential methods.

In addition, the course helps students gain an appreciation for the diverse applications of statistics and its relevance to their lives and fields of study. The course does not assume any prior knowledge in statistics and its only prerequisite is basic algebra. We offer two versions of statistics, each with a different emphasis: Probability and Statistics and Statistical Reasoning. One of the main differences between the courses is the path through probability; Statistical Reasoning places less emphasis on probability than does the Probability and Statistics course and takes an empirical approach.
