-Includes mild humor that makes it more interesting.
-Nice Q & A format for most pages.
-URLs under pictures mess up text formatting, squeezes the text to the right of the page.
-Confusing picture at top of every page, what do geese have to do with your project, also, that picture is not cited.

Warm:
1. You guys had an interactive activity.
2. The bolding and coloring of the words make them seem important.
Cool:
1. The capitalization of some of the titles are hard to read.
2. The site could use more visual flavors and attractions. Pictures were fine though.

The pages were very cute and interactive which was nice.

Gives the reader an easy going sense.

Some pages however are too encyclopedia like.

A few pages however didn't have enough info pertaining to the subject

GOOD:
1. The jeapardy game was interesting and fun.
2.The layout of your project was creative and kept our attention
COOL:
1. Could have expanded the people and what they did with more detail
2. Each entry was a little vague. More detail would be helpful in understanding and helpful come time to play the game.

The website as a whole was pretty cool, I liked how you took the whole "atomic model" project idea and approached it from a funny standpoint; having the whole website be directed by the atom itself was a cool idea, and your attention to detail as far as the rest of the website goes was pretty good. Using all the videos in tandem made learning about it a whole lot easier than reading a giant block of text.
Other than that, thought, while the attempt to keep the website in 1st person was a nice gesture, it's a little confusing at times, and the grammar is thrown off consistently. Also, the quiz was not very interactive - perhaps having people actually put in answers, or having the answers right there on the page, something to make it easier and quicker.

1. Good creative and informative format
2. Easy and fun to follow.

1. Some images to help explain the experiments would be helpful.
2. It would be good to see the versions of atomic models the people theorized in the timeline.

Nice introduction and funny calvin and hobbs cartoon that fits perfectly.
The tone of the website is informal with jokes which helps keep the readers attention.

Cold
It's kind of a lot of reading to do if you want to understand everything on the site.
More things that were interactive would have made this website 10x better.

The periodic trends section really solidified my knowledge of the periodic table. The images were really instructive. The drop down aspect of the topics was really cool. The site was really sleek and there isn't much room for improvement. I would definitely refer back to this for future projects.

I liked the design of the website. I also liked #22 in your Bibliography, even though there really wasn't anything there. Viet didn't like how the navigation bar was on top, thus harder for someone to just navigate from page to page with ease. Cindy liked the theme of the website and how you guys used anime for the pictures and stuff to make it ore interesting. I think you should of asked permission from the people you used. I saw myself and I didn't ENJOY IT!!!! However, your diagrams. They were helpful and really got the point across without words.

-The sections are a bit vague

Follow the Yellow Brick Road to the Atom
GOOD:
1. The theme was very creative and we enjoyed following the yellow brick road.
2. All of your information was written in an interesting way. The two people talking got me interested.

COOL:
1. The plain font and white background made the website a little bland.
2. You could spice up the website with color and more pictures. Also add faces to your characters.

Jonathan and Jacob

1. It was well presented in format

2. The reader could really hear the voice of the author in the writing such as when you talked about Antoine Lavoisier

3. We would recommend that you ad more information to the pages as some of them are too thin

4. You could add in some of the experiments that the scientist had held which would make it easier to understand the findings

The cover page was very nice and the yellow brick road made sense to use as a guide through learning about the atom.
Learning through a dialogue was a orginal and effective way of teaching the readers how the atom works.
Cool
Some of the pictures/videos did not load on our computer.
We could not find any interactive parts to your website. Videos would have been a nice touch too.

2) The page is very eye-appealing

1) How each conversation begins is rather redundant, maybe adding a bit more "pizaz" to each different conversation
2) Maybe some of the pages could've included a game show or make it more fun, not just repeated Q & A

Did it with no partner and still turned out a very big webpage. Equal to the work any group of two could've done.
Good use of appealing comic strip that draws the readers attention.
COOL:
Website setup could've been more like a general science interest website.
Black and white is never good for the entire webpage. It's informative, for sure, but should've been more... aesthetically appealing throughout.

The layout, and small text sizes are uninviting. If it was more consistent then it would be easier to follow. Some of the pictures don't show up and the quiz is also hard to follow.
