Content Quality
Rating:
Strengths:
This site provides an overview of continuity through a brief analysis of five different example graphs. The continuity checklist is provided.
Concerns:
The site is full of adds, some of which are distracting as they are video ads. An immovable menu banner appears to overlap some of the content, depending on the size of the window. Hence, users must adjust the window size to view all content.

When viewed properly, this is a good resource for helping learners to visualize the conditions of the continuity checklist.

Ease of Use for Both Students and Faculty
Rating:
Strengths:
The way in which additional information is set to pop up when hovering over relevant text is visually appealing.
Concerns:
Some of the text appears to be hyperlinked. However, hovering over or clicking on some of this text causes additional information to appear on the example graphs. This could be slightly frustrating to users, especially if the window is such that the graph and text are not displayed together.
