Smithsonian Education – Welcome
great resources for students, families and educators
- I like that this website takes into consideration the types of audiences that would use the site and right off the bat narrows down the type of information the users see. I like the expandable and collapsible menu on the left and the menus at the top that give me an idea of where I am on the site. For example, with the lesson plans, the menu on the left expands to guide the user through several screens for that lesson plan. I dislike that sometimes the user might be in the middle of reading a lesson plan, click on an icon and be taken to a completely different part of the website without even realizing that he/she is no longer looking at the lesson plans section. I also dislike that the menus continue at the bottom of the page with a different font size (plus some of the links don’t work – big no no!)I like that this website takes into consideration the types of audiences that would use the site and right off the bat narrows down the type of information the users see.
