For Geography Teachers - 0 views

  •  
    Brick Cegelski 9/5/11 Overview: For Geography Teachers is a website that is designed to help teachers. It is hard to follow and is overloaded with links. The content is jumbled and it takes some time to find what you are looking for. I would not use this site to help me as an educator. Content: At first look the website doesn't look very good. It takes a while to find the content that would be helpful. The author is clearly identified and information is given about the author. The sponsor of the site is not identified and there is no information on how to get into contact with anyone involved with the site. There is no revision date and some of the links are broken and/or do not lead to anything that is helpful. Some links are useful but most that work are too simple and do not pertain to my needs as a teacher. The content is not well organized, making it hard to understand and to navigate. There isn't any interactivity on the site that makes it better. Design: The homepage is bland and does not catch your eye. The site sponsor is not clearly identified and there is no contact information. There aren't any directions for using the site. Many of the links are not useful and/or are broken. The sites graphics do not serve a purpose and do not contribute to the site. There is insufficient information and I would not use this site. The information is hard to find because of how many links are present.

AAG Center for Global Geography Education - 0 views

  •  
    Brick Cegelski 9/5/11 Overview: AAG Center for Global Geography Education offers educational resources for teachers and students. It is very easy to access and is a useful tool for teachers. It provides teaching modules that relate to current events and issues. The website would be very useful to teachers trying to find a good way to teach one of the themes of Geography and to get a look at different geographical issues from a worldwide perspective. Content: The basic content is easily accessible and easily found. The intended audience is stated on the main page. Its intended for higher education teachers, college students, and teachers of Advanced Placement in high school. The authors are clearly defined and information about them and how to contact them are also given. The sponsor of the site is clearly identified and displayed on the main page. The material was updated in the last year and is current enough to still be relevant for the information. The content is complete, well organized and accurate based on my knowledge of the information. Design: The website is easy to follow and downloads quickly. The website isn't too flashy but everything is clear and concise. The contents of the site are clearly indicated along the left side of the main page of the website. Information for making contact with the sponsor and the authors is readily available under the about us tab. The copyright date is easy to determine. All of the links work properly and lead to good information. The graphics are helpful and contribute to the information on the site.
