Trista,

Nice work on your tree identification StAIR.  I like that you clearly list the objectives you plan to address on the opening slide and that you compare conferous and deciduous trees by using needle vs. leaves.  This is something simple that students can recognize and helps to tell the major difference between the two types of trees.  I also thought that the Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources site was a great resource.  I did have a little trouble following the tree identification charts you made.  Perhaps connecting some of the boxes with lines would have helped me to follow the branch diagram better.  I also wasn't directed through all of the quiz questions.  After the first questions the presentation closed.  That may be an issue with the action buttons.  I had problems with this in my presentation as well.  Finally, I think this did a great job of addressing some of the UDL guidelines for checkpoint 2.2.  Nice work!

Technical Remarks:

None of the links in this presentation are broken
