Topic 1 - Exercise 3

An Heuristic Experience

As I teach in a Catholic School in Tasmania I thought I would do my evaluation on the Tasmanian Catholic Education Office Website, as this website is widely used by myself and colleagues.
In terms of effectiveness the website rates average in my opinion. All the necessary components are listed and at a click on the link and most of the information is at your fingertips. The thing that let it down is the curriculum component which is critical for myself and my colleagues to be able to find proves to be a little tricky to locate.
