Making the Modern World

Making the Modern World

The link above provides information for those either studying A levels or are doing vocational courses.
The website provides information from people who have qualifications in their chosen topic, this motivates students to push their education and go far. This is under the category of 'everyday life' for those who are auditory learners there is an audio version of the text, this is goods as it provides variety for the sites users and may invite more people. At the bottom of all informative pages there are several links with material that is related to whatever you are reading. This is good because it picks out the key subject and allows the reader to continue furthering their knowledge. All of the pages include pictures of maybe a related scientifical apparatus, this provides more variation to the readers learning. The website also provides interactive videos in which students can find out information by making their way through the images and text.
The website has alot of information, this may seem very daunting to a student nd may put them off. The purpose of this website is to provide a different more interesting way for people to learn. I think with all the audio clips, media scene's and images the website succeeds in a new way to learn. The site is also very simple and free from distractions such as games and sponsored sites, another feature is that it's is very easy to navigate around.
The site reinforces that education is very important, and provides useful information, people may uwish to refer to this rather than a textbook in the near future.
