Example: Three Examples Interactive Web Presentation read
| Site 1 | Coursera |
| URL (address) | https://www.coursera.org/ |
| Describe the GUI. What navigational elements does it have? What colors does it use? Is it cluttered? | The GUI is highly organized and functional. You can navigate across all subjects from the menus provided on the home page. Light gray background, white subject detailed links with images. Banner is green blue (neon) contrast with blended student image. Dark gray headings and light gray content text. No clutter is evident. |
| Is the content relevant and appropriate? What additions/deletions of content might improve the site? Describe any multimedia presentations of specific products. What formats do they use? | The content is relevant and appropriate to the subject matter. Reducing content list on front page may speed uploading time and presentation. Video lectures and graphics using standard mp4 and jpgs. |
