Hi group 12! This is my review of your interactive learning resource. I’ll start off by giving you my feedback on what I believe you have done well, and then I have split up some things that I believe could use some work in several sections below.

Beginning with the “Physical Well-being” tab, pointing out what the videos are about is a nice touch, as many people will just say “please watch this video below about ___ “then put the video in. The arrows are an overall nice touch and give an interactive feel to it. Telling the learner where to go is also really nice to have and you guys have done this. Something you could do is provide a hyperlink that takes you to the next section in those sentences. Not something that is necessary, just an idea. Going along with that, the The first forum post provides a good way to get the learner involved with the material and with other classmates. The instructions are also very clear and easy to follow, the use of bolding in this activity is well done. Next, in the “Emotional/Social Well-being” tab, I like the interactive activity “How are you feeling at this moment?”, it allows the learner to engage with the topic right at the beginning. In the “Academic well-being” section, there are a lot of different interactive activities. I especially like how you linked the UVic webpage for academic wellness with the “CLICK ME!”, and the videos are very relevant as well. For all tabs, the use of allowing learners to leave comments is well done and is a good way to get conversations going. Lastly, citations were all well done, and appropriate references were listed in the last section.

Things to work on and improve:

Learning outcomes

Try to use a different word other than “explain” for all three learning outcomes. I do understand what you are trying to say with the learning outcomes, however there could be some other words to use. Here’s a link with to a pdf with verbs that could be useful! –> https://www.utica.edu/academic/Assessment/new/Blooms%20Taxonomy%20-%20Best.pdf

Interactivity

There could be room for a quiz at the end of the overall course, just to get the student engaged with all of the material to end off the resource.

Presentation

The background for the “Introduction” tab is a little distracting and makes the text hard to read.
Highlight the three topics in the “Introduction” tab so that they stand out and are separated from the rest of the text, bolding them could be a good way to do this.
In the “Emotion/Social Well-being” section, I just noticed that there is inconsistency in spacing in the steps for the “How are you feeling at this moment?” exercise. For example, “Step 1:” “Step2:” “Step3:”
Be consistent with displaying arrows to videos, there is no arrow on the “Emotional/Social Well-being” tab for the video, as well as for one of the videos on the “Academic Well-being” tab.
