Pedagogical aspects:Motivation and Interactivity:Approach is appropriate for the intended student population.
Format is varied.
Overall tenor of interaction is helpful.
Student is an active participant in the learning process.
Graphics and audio are used to motivate.
Graphics help focus attention to appropriate content without being distracting.Part1: Assessment standards:
Pedagogical aspects:Accuracy of content:Content is accurate.
Content is current.
Content breadth is reasonable.
Content is free of any bias or stereotyping.

    Necessary information canbe found quickly and easily. Part2: Technology RepresentationSoftware Name:Crocodile physics from Crocodile Clips which uses "constructional" approach for teaching and learning. Description: Crocodile physics, is an international professional simulation software in the physics field of experiments consists of many equipment to do experiments in optics, electronics, motion & force and waves which user can easily drag from the tools list and use.
