Stella,
ReplyDeleteI agree with you that the first website does a nice job of breaking down the process by using helpful graphs and descriptions for each step of the process. The 2nd website has a lot of resources that would not only be helpful to the ID process, but would also be a good tool for our current coursework. The 3rd website is great because, as you stated, it sheds light on the entire process from beginning to end. So many of these resources give you the tools for planning but don't necessary take you through the process. This would be good for doing just that.
