Overview: The purpose of this site is to provide users with concise and easy-to-read space science materials, and to help educators guide their lessons involving space science. This site is geared towards educators looking to solidify understanding, or develop new ideas for lessons. Though the site does not specifically provide lesson plans, it does provide the knowledge from which teachers could derive their own. There are links to other educational space science sites, as well a handful of interactive activities. I feel that this site is a valuable resource, contains high quality content, and could be well utilized by educators seeking to teach space science.
Content: This site’s overall content is clear from the homepage, though no specific authors are listed. All of the site’s content is well organized in categories. Once a reader finds their desired section of the site, the content is coherent. The material is strictly factual and contains no bias, and none of the links are broken. It is important to note that this site fails to provide any revision dates, rendering the currency of the site unknown.
Design: Amazing Space is easy to navigate and is compatible with many web browsers. There are two viewing options a user can pick from. Not both options present the same information, but it is all organized the same. A sidebar to the left of the screen organizes all of the site’s content. Users can easily find lists of clearly labeled fact sheets and activities. The site makes use of multimedia, especially photos and pictures. The pictures contribute to the visual appeal of the site, but do not serve a greater purpose. The site’s organizational downfall is that users often have to click through many links to find the desired material. -

Ashley SmithThis is a great place for children to do a self exploration on many topics; black holes, solar systems, etc. etc. I really wanted to see the hubble telescope working but all the information it had was everything about the hubble and news.
