Strengths

Good examples and textual explanations of the concept.

Strong instructional scaffolding.

Provided user feedback when links were present and functioning.

Weeknesses

What should the students be looking for in the video?

Does not meet UDL principles for most of the lesson. A voiceover of instructions and explanations woud improve this lesson. A sort video of the teacher explaining the concept would help as well.

Practical example using this concept would provide context.

Technical Remarks:

Overlapping text on some slides is difficult to read.

Multiple broken links throughout the presentation.

Embedding the video in the presentation would streamline the lesson.
