It took me about 2 hours to get through this page, there was a lot of
information and since my nephew has a form of this disease I found it to be
quite interesting. I feel that this site helped towards educating me more to
know what we would be going through with my nephew. This site could enhance a
lot of peoples education, mostly too if they have someone in their family with
this disorder. I found this site to be a lot better than most sites for finding
information.

This site offers excellent information. There are links highlighted in the text
that will take the reader to additional information for a more indepth look at
the features of ADHD. Other than the embeded links there is little, if any
interactivity. As an instructor, this may be assigned to a class for outside
reading and discussion so that time in the classroom could be utilized in a more
efficient manner.

hours trying it?) -------I only spent a short while reviewing the material. I
was focused mainly on the task at hand, creating a summary of the web page.
2. The quality of content. (Do the materials accurately present concepts and
models that are educationally significant?) ----------This sight has very
quality content. It uses specific references and links to other refereed sites,
such as American academy of pediatrics, one (possibly a physician) had any
further inquries about the diagnosing of ADHD.
3. The potential effectiveness for enhancing teaching and learning. (If used
appropriately, will students learning and faculty's teaching be
enhanced?)----------- I feel this is a terrific site to incorporate into a
course plan focusing on ADHD. The content is organize very well, sometimes with
brief summaries alluding to another page that is further developed. If any one
has a question about ADHD I would recommend this web site.
