    The purpose of this website is for teachers to come in and buy items that might not be in everyday stores. These items are things specifically for different subjects and different grades. This website looks appealing and easy to use, however the items look very pricy. The audience is mostly for teachers however; anyone could go on here and purchase these items. The website has almost anything you can think of that a teacher would need for there classroom and objects that would help them teach a specific topic. Right as you open the page there are pictures of what you can buy, which makes this website look very appealing. There are different tabs you can click on to find different things, and one of the tabs shows you how to pay and order online. Hal Kaplan is the CEO of this company, and on the about us tab, it has a whole page talking about how this company came about. This website seems very up to date and very credible. The design of the website is very colorful and easy to use. Additionally the way in navigating this website is very pleasing to the users. It looks almost just like a different form of Amazon. You search what you want to buy, and it will see if this website has what you need.

Citation Machine: Citing Research Papers - 0 views

  •  
    Tonya Searles The purpose of citationmachine.net is to aid anybody who is writing a referenced work to properly cite the material they are using. The website is dedicated to preventing plagiarism. The intended audience is high schools, universities, teachers and independent researchers. The website provides easy to see choices for referencing in the major formats used in writing such as APA, MLA, and Chicago. The user would select the format choice they wish to use and fill in the boxes with the appropriate information, and the machine generates a complete reference in the proper format. The site appears easy to use and read. For a student (or author of a paper) who wishes to cite their material this website is definitely relevant, accurate, and purposeful. However, although I can clearly see the website has been updated since my last visit there is no indication of its currency. The citations generated are in line with current standards when putting in an APA reference. There is also a link to an older version of the site which also indicates currency, albeit without a date. The creator of the website is David Warlick, and while there was little information about him on the site, a google search revealed him to be an author and educator, indicating he may be an authority in referencing materials. Strengths of the website include clear step by step instructions on how to use the citation machine. There are also links that will take you to places to evaluate the originality of an essay to further avoid plagiarism. A weakness of the website is the amount of ads on the site, but it is free, and a network, so ads are expected. The design of the website is not overly ostentatious. There are simply colored blocks with text to click on, and the orange and reds are not overly bright and distracting. I prefer websites that do not have a lot going on, and that have only links that serve a related purpose. With the exception of the unavoidable ads, this website fits th
