Air Pollution e-Learning review---Janey (Jiani HU)

 
     I think the e-learning activity of air pollution is quite good but has its limitation. I will state my opinion divided into three parts: advantage , disadvantage and conclusion.
   
       Advantage
1.    Give out a clear list of aims, it let students understand what to learn quickly.
2.    Give out the resources’ link, it let students to learn more about the topic.
3.    Divided the whole learning into four parts: introduction of the air pollution, impact of the air pollution, measures of keeping the air clean and a project for students. It made the learning logical and suitable to cognition and constructivism.
4.    The flashes make the introduction intuitionistic and easy to understand.

Disadvantage
1.   Enough chart and pictures but too many words. Students who join this activity may not so patient to view all these words. Maybe it should use flash or movie to instead.
2.   The whole e-learning activity works like a lecture. Doesn’t let students to collect information and think out the solution themselves.
3.   The last part of project is too huge, it should let students think about the individual contribution.
4.   Doesn’t reach all goals effectively.


      Conclusion
   Refer to the SOLO system, if it could also be a standard for this situation, I think this e-learning activity can reach the level between 3 and 4 (between Multiple unrelated points and
Logically related answer).
