Website Reviews

www.merlot.org

This website seemed very useful to me. I think you have to become a member to benefit from most of its material, but once a member it appeared it could be very functional. I really liked the look of the webiste, the layout was very professional but easy to navigate. It had links to browse through different learning activities that teachers could use in their classrooms. I could see me using this website in the future if necessary.


www.khanacadamy.org

I didn't like this website as soon as it loaded on my computer. It seemed very unprofessional to me. Even when I started looking at it, I wasn't real sure what the purpose of the website was or who would benefit from it. I noticed most of the website was taken up by "Related Searches" which appeared to me to be advertisments. I wouldn't suggest this website to any colleagues that were looking for new sources online. I definitely wouldn't use this website for my own use either.


www.wikipedia.com

Wikipedia is a very known website among computer users. I think it is very user friendly. Its very easy to navigate through, you just type in what you want to look up and it takes you to a page with information pertaining to what you typed in. It is also handy that you can look up information using different languages. This is very helpful for how users from different countries.
