Evaluating and Identifying Online Resources

I chose two sites to review this week for this weeks assignment:

http://www.dynamicflight.com/avcfibook/learning_process

http://www.instructionaldesign.org/theories/information-processing.html

The first site was my favorite, I really enjoyed reading all the information presented.  It covered much of what we have covered in our book these first two chapters. This site covers some great information and I found so much of it to be interesting I have actually bookmarked this site for future reference.

Some items I found interesting were the Characteristics of Learning, the information on Learning Styles, the Principles of Learning as well as the levels of Learning. It even covers theories of forgetting, this was and will be something I will take with me to work and share with my co-workers, we always like to share Learning information. 

The second site I reviewed was a brief  review of George A. Miller's two theoretical ideals. It discusses "chunking", and TOTE (Test-Operate-Test-Exit). While this site didn't have as much information, it had some information that I had not seen before and I found to be interesting, I enjoyed reading this information and learning about short term memory.
