This is a thorough website on the basics of Globalization. It is difficult to form a complete discussion about Globalization, because the idea iself is so expansive. However, this site strives to forge a skeleton of significant issues regrding the topic and serves as a solid introduction.
The information is well organized and accesible to the user. The sidebar on the left is paticularly useful for navigation.
The "Quiz" function at the end is a useful way for users to apply their knowledge and get some feedback as to how much they have learned from the website. It is an excellent educational tool for the user.
