    Amy Andreen 9-14-11 Overview: This site is based out of the UK but it has great historical content. The greater part of the emphasis is on European history which is very interesting to look into. It will obviously have a bias that leans toward the British, but I find that to be beneficial in researching topics and content for the classroom. It's a site that would be useful to both Social Studies teachers as well as High School Students. Content: A wide variety of the site focuses on the historical events that took place on European soil. However, it is not limited to this. There are primary accounts from both World Wars as well as other events throughout history. There are podcasts that allow students and teachers alike to have a more interactive experience on the site. The list of topics within the site is almost endless. As far as content goes, this site is a great resource. Design: The Historical Associations' site is beautiful when it comes to content; however, I found the site very boring to look at. It isn't hard to navigate which is great, but in my opinion it lacks in inviting colors that should add interest to the viewers. There are many different tabs that allow one to explore the site very easily and enjoy all of the content offered. Once the researcher or viewer makes it past the layout, this site has fabulous material that can be very useful to teachers and their students.

    Overview: This site was very informational. THere was plenty of instructional, educational tools invovledin this website. My overall impression was what one would have of NASA n general; awe. Content: This site was very good at backing up it's information and as far as I could tell, the information was all accurate. The author,sponsor, and contact person were provided. There were no comercial adds and all of the links directly pertained to the information on the site. Design: The page downloads fine. The layout and decorum of the site was very fitting for NASA> There was alot of links and information, but it was not cluttered. Navigatino around the site was clear cut and simple. There was alot of multimedia on the site that added to it's depth.

    No longer is Agriculture Education just about Cows, Sows and Plows! We as Ag educators have a duty to our students to educate them about basic real world principles. One of the most important things we can teach that many of those kids are not getting is money management; How to make good financial decisions and how to keep from collecting millions of dollars in dept. We as a world are still in the recession, and it is important that as the new generation of teachers we take our experiences and teach those kids to that their world can be better as they get older. One of the most important lessons I ever learned in ag was how credit cards work kiplinger.com offers basic information about how finances work, we can base a section for our class to focus on how to be financially sound, and that is what is going to benefit those kids the most. They need to realize that Ag education is about real world application and what is more real than understanding how to take care of yourself without having a gloomy cloud of debt over your head.

      This is a great program to do basic page layout. It is a lot cheaper than InDesign or PageMaker and for most educational purposes will work fine. I wish that I had a copy of this program when I took high school journalism because we could have trained students better how to create effective and creative page layouts to prepare them to be editors.
  • open-source program
  • Scribus supports professional publishing features, such as CMYK color, separations, ICC color management and versatile PDF creation.

      Nathan Wonnacott 9/9/11 Overview: The Smithsonian Institution web page is a great way to not only allow people, say in Wyoming, to access the galleries on the other side of the US, but also provides insightful ways to teach students as well. This website's audience is target to parents, teachers, and even students alike. It covers many topics, ranging from history, science, art, and technology. I believe this site to be a very useful tool in educating. Content: At the first glimpse of the Smithsonian webpage, one gets a sense of variety. There are pictures of various exhibits and links are provided to many others not depicted. It does not appear strictly childish, but rather, for all those interested in America and its past experiences. Once I explored the site, I found that not only do all the links work successfully, but that they lead down a path of well-informed knowledge. The information on this site in not just simple facts, but up to date insight to the topics presented. However, the website does leave out links to other sites, which limits one's available resources to just the site alone. It also leaves out the author, leaving only the sponsor to be recognized and contacted. Design: The setup is both fast and easy to navigate, with organized pull-down menus right from the start. The pictures and references to their exhibit are detailed, useful, and attention grabbing. Activities and games are also available, and help to locate and find new information. The pages are relatively current, last revised on July 6, 2011. Available on multiple browsers, the site is effective and worth visiting.

    Mary Magnuson, The Website http://www.amnh.org/education/resources/rfl.php?set=b&topic_id=4&subtopic_id=60&intro=false is great. It is organized really well. The downloads are really fast, and all of the ones I tried worked. It is geared towards both the student and the teacher. They are resources that can be used in the classroom, or you can assign students to go there, and there are specific directions with pictures that the students could follow. It is also organized based on grade levels. The content is also good, and from the museum of natural history, so it is reliable. It helps organize deep concepts into easy to understand models.

    Tyler Igo This sites purpose is to give teachers ideas and worksheets on teaching fractions. There is plenty of content available on the site. The intended audience is teachers. This is a site that I would use in the future. Content of my website. User can easily identify content. There is not a single author, this is a specific group. There is a "what's new" tab so there is new content added. The content does seem to accomplish the goal of presenting teachers with ideas and worksheets. Design of my website. The homepage loads very quickly and is very bright and fun. There are plenty of tabs on the side of the webpage to easily navigate. The information is easily accessible and titled well. There is not a clear date of revision.

    Ivey Barnes 10/13/2014 OVERVIEW This website provides a series of videos describing different concepts in mathematics to help high school students with difficulties that they are having with different math concepts. These videos can allow students to watch step by step directions on the concepts that they are having difficulties with at home. The site also provides practice worksheets about the concepts and a key for those worksheets.  CONTENT The website has been kept up to date, so far, from 2008 to 2013.  The site was put up by Charles McKeague, who has his B.A. in Mathematics, and six of his students. Each of the lessons can be taught by some of the students or Mr. McKeague, so that the students can pick who they want to watch. A helpful factor is that a Spanish version of most of the videos is available. DESIGN The websites videos are organized in different menus and submenus, and then by the problem that is being explained. This is an okay way to organize the videos, but I feel like it could be improved because if too many of the menus are open then the column becomes crowded. A nice design factor is that you can see an image of the instructor that is in the videos. All of the videos are easily and quickly assessable from the websites different menus without redirection to a different website and are also available in a full screen view.
