This is a wonderful site to design any graphic organizer in which you can use to design anything in which you would need for a presentation or anything you would need a graphic organizer. The one part of this site that most people will not like is it does cost money. It is not free.
The reason I have chosen this site is due the ease of use and the different graphic that can be used.

Multiplication.com - 0 views

Multiplication.com is a learner-center program using the student's cognitive ability. This program uses many strategies to focus on the learner. The program has many interactive activities that the children enjoy and become very engaged in. The site uses animation to reinforce multiplication skills. This site focuses on memorization but also encourages reinforcement if the student misses a problem. The site does not give any instructions as how to solve the problems or come up with an answer. Since this site is learner-centered which does include animation as well as text it is covered under Mayer's theory of cognitive ability using the "presentation mode" (Mayer, pg. 8).

Smartboard.com allows teachers to understand how to use a Smartboard. The site uses dual processing to show us how to use an interactive technology. There are videos on the site which have audio and video clips of students using the Smartboard, which is included in Mayer's cognitive theory of "learner-center" (2009, pg. 9). As Mayer stated, "This is learner-centered because it takes the learner's information-processing activity into account" (2009, pg. 9). Within this site, there are also lessons, which can be used on the Smartboard, which also becomes "learner-centered". Overall, this is a good site to get useful information to use within a classroom or a workshop.
