Audrey Stevens on 20 Sep 11Audrey Stevens 9/20/2011 Resources for Kindergarten and Grade One Students Overview: This website was designed for most likely parents or teachers who could then help their children or students use the site. This site provided many links to educational sites free of advertisements and pop-ups. This site was invented with the intent of getting younger children familiar with technology. Many resources were available on this site and based on the evaluation sheets, this site is very useful for information needs, worth bookmarking for future reference and very well designed and easy to use. Content: On this particular website, only one thing fell into the "no" category and once again it was the revision, however other than that there were absolutely no problems. This seemed like the most legitimate site I reviewed. It was very well organized, had great educational content, there was contact information, instructions, information provided about the sponsor and author. There was even a specific tab for other useful websites. It was an extremely professional site that was very useful for information needs and certainly worth bookmarking for future reference. Design: Just like for the content evaluation, only one thing fell under the "no" category, and it was the same thing. The revision date, however, all the information in the site seemed very up to date. This site was still appealing to the eye, only it was not as appealing as most sites, most likely because they were going for a more educational view. The site was easy to navigate through and there were directions provided if needed. All the links opened with no dead ends, the graphics made significant contributions to the site and it downloaded with no problems. It was very well designed and easy to use.
