The Review:

1- What was your first impression. Give this in a sentence that grabs the reader’s attention.

In my opinion, I think this is one of the best resources out there of educational web tools and mobile apps that is very useful and helpful for educators and teachers.  

2- General overview of the product and what does it does

This website is a great tool for teachers and educators where it shows different kinds of applications that can be used in teaching. It demonstrates so many apps that can be very helpful and gives a brief summary of each of them.  

3- What does it do for the field of educational technology (how does it contribute to teaching and learning).

Using applications to ease the learning process is considered one of the aspects of implementing technology in education. presenting these applications and presenting them to teachers and educators is all what this website is about.

 

4- If reviewing a website (portal or web 2.0) make sure you discuss usability and navigation

The website has a successful navigational system and great usability which makes it easy for everyone to find their way around.

5- Include an image of the website/product (make sure it is not to big)

 

6- Create a link to either the website or main product line (so people can get more information directly)

7- Provide a break down

1. The Good: presents a variety of applications in a very organized way
2. The Bad: I think it would be better if each application mentioned would have ratings so that viewers can have an idea how the application was evaluated
3. The Bottom Line: This is a useful and helpful website for teachers to use technology in education

 

8- Give it a rating from 1 (poor) to 5 (excellent): 5
