post #5

I critiqued http://fsu.edu/and according to the rules discussed I chapter 6, it is a website that conveys information very well. This site has a general design that can be easily navigated, explaining clearly where in the site you currently are. The site does not complicate comprehension by using multiple text styles, extreme colors, or meaningless images or text. This site keep information lines at a decent length and makes the words as easily visible as possible.

There are multiple advantages to using presentation software. The main advantage is for its major effect in memory and comprehension. Most students comprehend information faster and able to remember longer when there are visual aids. Without presentation software information is presented to students in word forms only, and when instructing younger children, this makes the learning process a lot harder. Pictures and visual aids make information more appealing therefore making it more desired to be learned.

Power Point helps you to remember and understand information by allowing you to organize information on different slides in order to give easier understanding of information by separate categories. Various charts and diagrams can be made through Power point for purposes of applying the information that is being learned. Power point can be used for analyzing and evaluating information allowing the viewing of multiple slides for comparison of data. It is easy to say that accurate representation of information can be created through power point software.

  1. I agree with you when you say that students learn better with visual aids. I know that I don't pay attention if I don't have something to draw my attention.
