Plan for Feedback
 
Overview
This is the plan for soliciting and receiving feedback for the American history unit activities. Feedback will be solicited from both students participating in the activities and teachers monitoring these students.
 
Usability Testing and

The participants of the study were chosen because of their language level, skill level, and age. Students will be encouraged to think aloud, talk with their classmates about the experience, and complete an evaluation/feedback form.

Revisions
After observing students and reviewing feedback from teachers and students, I received numerous points to consider and made revisions. Several suggestions were mentioned and changes made:
* make test questions easier or change targeted level
* add a vocabulary for all puzzles
* add sound to all links
* create links from the activities to the home page
* make activities shorter
