The following is a tutorial I put together to teach HTML. It was designed as what I called "facilitated study", which meant that you could call or email if you got stuck and I could get you unstuck. Unfortunately, I do not have the time to make this offer. This still serves as a decent piece of educational curriculum for teaching or for self-paced learning (If you are good at this genre of education and fairly savvy with computers). I am placing this work into the public domain for non-commercial use.
