Content Quality
Rating:
Strengths:
Excellent resources; you also receive a free book (I'll post it separately), on best practices in instructional design. The site has many chapters which I will submit separately because there are a lot of resources that warrant a more thorough discussion. For anyone who isn't a graphic designer by trade, Connie's website is a helpful tool (a bridge), to produce quality work.
Concerns:
None; please keep expanding the site.
Potential Effectiveness as a Teaching Tool
Rating:
Strengths:
Concise chapters and extensive resource list.
It's a good material as a supplementary resource. I would suggest mining it thoroughly for different resources. Connie's blogs can be a starer for discussions.
Concerns:
It's a good reference material with excellent free resources. It can be used all on its own but best in a classroom setting in addition to other resources and reflection exercises.
Ease of Use for Both Students and Faculty
Rating:
Strengths:
Excellent collection of resources, blogs, free templates, and Connie's books. Connie also runs podcasts.
Concerns:
This is a good question to ask Connie. I am not sure if there are any specific usability issues.
