How To Prevent Hand Cramps During A Test

By Franklin Skribbit


Building a website can be fun as well as a lot of hard work. While there are many CMS (content management system) that do most of the work you will find that even if you are not writing the code understanding it and being able to alter it can be enormous assets in your web development toolkit. There are many different computer languages to learn for web development but here are the first five you should delve into (in order of importance).

Before Your Test

1. Find the Right Pen This is going to be very important. The right pen can greatly add to or remove any cramping that you may experience. There are three main criteria that you need to have in mind when purchasing your pen. The first is a wide grip. When a pen has a wider grip your fingers do not have to close down as much, nor do they need to exert the same amount of pressure to hold the pen. The wide grip affords you a much natural hand position.

Along with the wide grip make sure that the pen you choose is very comfortable. People's hands are all different, no surprise there. So it should not be a surprise that the comfort of pens will be different for different people. Try holding pens in the store before you buy them to make sure that you have found the right pen for you.

CSS3 CSS (cascading style sheet) allows you to control the look and feel of your website easily and quickly. The idea of CSS is to control the design of a website without altering the content (content is written in HTML). A style sheet is a page that lists all of the visual qualities that you want your webpages to have. This can include color, size, style, etc. of your font. It also includes the background of pages, the look of tabs and buttons. Basically, all of your visual elements are contained within the style sheet. In reality HTML although it does contain tags to bold, italicize, control font size, etc. was not really designed to format content. HTML exists more to define the content as discussed above.

Make sure to dress the part. Look professional and hirable. Some students wander through the fair dressed casually talking to companies.

The latest version of CSS is CSS3. You can go ahead and learn that one first without worrying about differences that exist in previous versions. Remember, you can surf the web looking for designs you like and borrow the code. A better method would be to buy a design template that gives you alteration rights and work from there. You can also use free programs like composer to better see your CSS in action. If you are hoping for greater control Dreamweaver has always been a favorite but unfortunately it is not free.

During Your Test

1. Stretch Before you being to write and during the test there are a number of different stretches that you can do to reduce the cramping in your hand. One set of exercises you can do is as follows: -Hold out your arm in front of you with your palm facing down. Lift up wrist while letting your fingers dangle downward. -Next reverse the motion by pressing your wrist downward and stretching up your fingers -Relax your hand and slowly open and close it fully. -If necessary repeat the motions.

2. Hold Your Pen Correctly! I know you just read about holding your pen but it needs to be brought up again. During the test you will find that your concentration on the task at hand will cause you to forget about your grip until you realize you are cramping.

MySQL Before you start going into MySQL understand that you can build a great website with just HTML, CSS, Java, and PHP. MySQL is used primarily for database building which most websites will need eventually, especially if you are selling items on a large-scale. If you are simply creating a visual website for personal uses you probably won't need to bother with this language, but we will assume you have high hopes for your website's growth.

The language is also easily scalable but the more information you place in the database the more processing power you will need to dedicate to it. If you are carrying personal data in your system MySQL also has a high level of security built into it. Built to work well and be easy to use MySQL is probably where you want to start (although there are other languages you could use). Really no special tips for learning this language. If you have already learned the languages above MySQL really should not present a problem for you.

2. Houston, we have a problem If you are having a serious problem with cramping then talk with your professor about it. Some cramping issues can be hereditary while others are developed over time. It should not matter if you in a St. George college or at Oxford professors will want to help you succeed so speak with them after class and arrange for different accommodations that will allow you to take the test without causing yourself injury.
