** Site URL: [|http://www.emc.maricopa.edu/faculty/farabee/BIOBK/BioBookmito.html] **  ** Comments: **  This site supports teaching by having a website that gives students the opportunity for help maybe after class time is over. They can study off this website to help them do better on tests and quizzes. This website basically teaches you the stages of mitosis and if you click the top of the page you can go right to the stage or process of the cycle that you don't know. You learn with drawings and actual pictures of cells under a microscope to show you the phases. One limitation of the site is that it is not interactive. You just see and you can't really do anything like answer and question about the phases and see if you get them right. You could use this in the classroom by having your students look over it for a review. The definitions of the key words are there and so are the pictures so your students could quiz each other and review for the test. **
 * Title:** Cell Division: Binary Fission and Mitosis

Web Evaluation Rubric: ** 

Site URL: [] Comments:** This site ** supports teaching by showing teachers a useful site for resources related to science topics. You can learn very easily on this website because there are different media types for students to look at and look into. The modules make it easy for you to find something you are looking for. A limitation of the site is that even though it does a good job by showing you things of science, it doesn't go into great detail about them. Another limitation is some modules in the site have activities and if you don't have the resources for this activities then that makes it kind of hard to try them. You could use this in a classroom by having the students be interactive with the website. There are activities and games to play to help them learn and discover something new. It gets the students involved and wanting to participate more when they are included in the activity. Web Evaluation Rubric:** Look in above document
 * Title: FOSSweb

Comment: FOSSweb is a decent website though it could show more information than it did. It did not go into as much detail as it could of. The website overall is pretty good for students to get involved with the material that they are learning. BS

Comment: The cell division site provides a lot of information that accomodates for older students rather than for elementary students. Fossweb provides an excellent basis to help start various lessons within the topic with the basic information organized for differing age groups.
