Web Pages That Suck - learn good web design by looking at bad web design - Home Page - 0 views

      This webpage was advertised as a website to help teach people what bad websites look like. Their homepage is an excellent example, and it does what it says-it helps you understand why a site is overwhelming and has too much going on.

      I think this is a great website. It has some great information, but it also is clear and concise. It has clear links to areas, and it's aesthetically pleasing.

      You may not be able to log into this site, but it is, in my opinion, a very difficult site to use for a blackboard program. I think this because of it's organization. Finding files can take forever, and there are too many links on the homepage for classes.

      In another one of my classes we've talked a lot about how kids don't read today-don't keep up with politics, modern events, or anything like that. This website would make it very difficult to learn anything related to politics. It's incredibly overwhleming, too many colors, and way too many links.

      Overwhelming! I'm not a big fan of everything going on here. It's unorganized and has too much going on. If I was trying to get any DMV School information from this site it would be very difficult.

      This goes on my least favorite sites because of it's lack of credible information. I just feel that it can dramatically mislead a student.

      This is kind of a neat educational site for young children who are working with grammar. It's a game where you have to help gorillas.

      I assume everyone's seen this site. If you haven't it summarizes texts and information. But it's one of my least favorite sites, as an English guy. It just cheats kids out of thinking for themselves. It's not 21st century learning-students don't learn to think or read critically, they just regurgitate the information they read here, which does more harm than good.

      This website is awesome. I haven't looked through many other disciplines, but for the English section there's a ton of information. You can take tests on certain literary periods or look through their archives. It's fantastic!

      As you can see, there's some free or paid options. Truthfully I haven't used this site myself-I haven't needed to, but I've heard a lot about it. It seems like it'd be a great way to create some practice tests or home study programs for students.

      I highlighted the teaching section. It has some cool ideas!
