Reaching out to poor and undeserved, screening, policy framework implementation, development of newer techniques and materials of preventive procedure, echoing the agenda of tobacco cessation are a few listed leading activities of Public Health Dentist (PHD). These Dentists are the voice of dentistry in community research and policy level. Hence adequate opportunities of sharing must be available on a common platform. OBJECTIVE To assess the need, develop and validate an innovative and informative common web-based platform for all Public Health Dentist METHODS The exploratory study was conducted for a duration of 6 months. The study was divided into four phases. In the first phase the webpage was developed after a thorough web-based search, a systematic and organised outline of the webpage was laid down. Technical guidance was obtained from web designers who helped us design the web page into various components. In second phase of the study validation of the web page and need assessment of the website was done. This was done by self-administered, structured and validated 18 item questionnaire among 30 faculty and 30 Post Graduate Students [(PG) (in public health dentistry)]. The website was developed in the third phase of the study. The various sections of website were ‘About Us’, ‘Continuous Dental Education (C.D.E)’, ‘Webinar’, ‘Health Programmes’ and Information Education Communication (I.E.C) material’ etc. Fourth phase of the study was validation of fully developed and functional website. The validation of the website was done by self-administered, structured and validated 13 item questionnaire by the same subjects.

Web authoring is the process of developing Web pages. The Web development process requires you to use software to create functional pages that will work on the Internet. Adding Web functionality is creating specific components within a Web page that do something. Adding links, rollover graphics, and interactive multimedia items to a Web page creates are examples of enhanced functionality. This chapter demonstrates Web based authoring techniques using Macromedia Dreamweaver. The focus is on adding Web functions to pages generated from Macromedia Fireworks and to overview creating Web pages from scratch using Dreamweaver. Dreamweaver and Fireworks are professional Web applications. Using professional Web software will benefit you tremendously. There are other ways to create Web pages using applications not specifically made to create Web pages. These applications include Microsoft Word and Microsoft PowerPoint. The use of Microsoft applications for Web page development is not covered in this chapter. However, I do provide steps on how to use these applications for Web page authoring within the appendix of this text. If you feel that you are more comfortable using the Microsoft applications or the Macromedia applications simply aren’t available to you yet, follow the same process for Web page conceptualization and content creation and use the programs available to you. You should try to get Web page development skills using Macromedia Dreamweaver because it helps you expand your software skills outside of basic office applications. The ability to create a Web page using professional Web development software is important to building a high-end computer skills set. The main objectives of this chapter are to get you involved in some technical processes that you’ll need to create the Web portfolio. Focus will be on guiding you through opening your sliced pages, adding links, using tables, creating pop up windows for content and using layers and timelines for dynamic HTML. The coverage will not try to provide a complete tutorial set for Macromedia Dreamweaver, but will highlight essential techniques. Along the way you will get pieces of hand coded action scripts and JavaScripts. You can decide which pieces you want to use in your own Web portfolio pages. The techniques provided are a concentrated workflow for creating Web pages. Let us begin to explore Web page authoring.

For many years, the World Wide Web (Web) functioned quite well without any concern about the quality of performance. The designers of the Web page, as well as the users were not much worried about the performance attributes. The Web, in the initial stages of development, was primarily meant to be an information provider rather than a medium to transact business, into which it has grown. The expectations from the users were also limited only to seek the information available on the Web. Thanks to the ever growing population of Web surfers (now in the millions), information found on the Web underwent a dimensional change in terms of nature, content, and depth.

There has been much written about the use of the Web in higher education, much of which advocates its use as an effective way of supporting learning, particularly in terms of the desirability of features such as flexibility and the value of online discussions. In this paper, a case study is described which calls some of this received wisdom into question. The study also explores wider issues of curriculum design, particularly in terms of the role of assessment and of self-assessment, both of which played a crucial role in the course. Unlike many studies, then, the purpose of this paper is not to demonstrate the success of a particular approach or to advocate particular forms of practice, but instead to highlight the shortcomings of existing guidelines for curriculum development in this area. This suggests that further inquiry into this form of education is required — and in particular, inquiry that pays detailed attention to the backgrounds of learners, and involves close study of their experiences.DOI:10.1080/0968776020100206

BACKGROUND Web-based public health courses are becoming increasingly popular. “Public Health Principles in Disaster and Medical Humanitarian Response” is a unique Web-based course in Hong Kong. This course aimed to fill a public health training gap by reaching out to postgraduates who are unable to access face-to-face learning. OBJECTIVE The aim of this paper was to use a structured framework to objectively evaluate the effectiveness of a Web-based course according to Greenhalgh et al’s quality framework and the Donabedian model to make recommendations for program improvement. METHODS An interim evaluation of the first cohort of students in 2014 was conducted according to the Donabedian model and a quality framework by Greenhalgh et al using objective and self-reported data. RESULTS Students who registered for the first cohort (n=1152) from June 16, 2014 to December 15, 2014 (6 months) were surveyed. Two tutors and the course director were interviewed. The Web-based course was effective in using technology to deliver suitable course materials and assessment and to enhance student communication, support, and learning. Of the total number of students registered, 59.00% (680/1152) were nonlocal, originating from 6 continents, and 72.50% (835/1152) possessed a bachelor’s or postgraduate degree. The completion rate was 20.00% (230/1152). The chi-square test comparing students who completed the course with dropouts showed no significant difference in gender (P=.40), age (P=.98), occupation (P=.43), or qualification (P=.17). The cost (HK $272 per student) was lower than that of conducting a face-to-face course (HK $4000 per student). CONCLUSIONS The Web-based course was effective in using technology to deliver a suitable course and reaching an intended audience. It had a higher completion rate than other Web-based courses. However, sustainable sources of funding may be needed to maintain the free Web-based course.

Phishing attacks include the use of techniques to create polymorphic phishing web pages to give the impression of real sites. Other sites rely on the risk of phishing, including money linked, informal organizations, the travel industry, web-based business, and so on. For e.g., phishers are specifically attached to travel-related administrations by mirroring them as excursion experts, aircraft reservations, accommodation bookings, and so on. Be that as it may, concentrating on reputable pages, given all, leaves the web page looking outwardly like the first one. Right now, suggest a methodology that relies on the favicon database to discover the existence of the site and use it to determine the validity of the site. Phishing is a program that tricks individuals into giving touchy data such as usernames and passwords, paying card subtleties, delicate bank data, and so on, by way of e-mail mocking, tweeting, or using counterfeit sites whose look and feel gives the presence of a real site Right now, a technique called parse tree approval is proposed to determine whether a website page is legitimate or phishing. This paper provides an in-depth study of methods accessible to the detection of phishing sites. A similar research was carried out into the use of enemy phishing instruments and their containment was acknowledged. We have broken down the URL-based highlights used in the past to refine their meanings according to the current situation, which is our major commitment. In addition, the step-by-step method of structuring the enemy of the phishing model is talked about developing a competent system that adds to our commitment. The views of this analysis are presented alongside recommendations on the existing frameworks.

Services like tourism have to use the possibilities of modern advertising. In particular, these include the World Wide Web (WWW). This platform brings its products and services directly to the customers. To place the information about a region and its tourist offer in optimal manner requires exact definition of elements in the Web based tourist information system (WETIS) and their presentation. We discuss the elements and their integration in other services, the data structures and types, maps and their interactivity. Furthermore, we present tourism related data of selected Slovakian villages and cities. Finally, we give a report regarding our demonstration web page and future development. The usual tourist information on the web usually relates to the most interesting historical or cultural sights in the region and is marketing oriented. In this way the full image of history and beauty of the characteristic towns and villages is usually missed. Our intention was - in cooperation with the Geotourism students of the Institute if Geotourism - to map also these features of Eastern Slovakia and of the NE Carpathians. As the web is to serve mainly the tourist community, the map connects to useful information on various facilities available at the given locality. The detailed photo-documentation makes it possible e.g. also to see each traditional house. This is interesting as the number of these houses is decreasing. They are replaced by modern buildings, which lack the regional and local flavour.

Hijaiyah letters are letters used in the writing of the Holy Qur'an. In learning hijaiyah letters, many children still have difficulties so alternative learning methods are needed to make children more interested in recognizing hijaiyah letters. Interactive hijaiyah learning using electronic media is also still rare. Of the several hijaiyah letter recognition applications which are available, it is also limited in the use of certain operating systems. This research uses the waterfall method. The technology used to build web-based games in this study is HTML5 because HTML5 has the advantage of the flexibility to run on various platforms through a browser. In addition, this application does not require an installation process like other applications, but simply by accessing the web page, the application can be used. The results of this study are Hijaiyah Match games that can be run on various operating systems through a browser. The test results show that this application can help children learn hijaiyah letters.
