 Motivating and informative
 Easy to use and readable, not misleading

 The student has control over the presentation rate
 Demo of software gives appropriate feedback to students, reinforcing for correct rather than incorrect responses
 There is a high degree of interactivity, student interaction, and control

 There is an appropriate degree of fidelity and good documentation available for how the program works
 The website also contains demos where users can complete simulations included in the software

 There is no violence or inappropriate behavior in the software
 The software does not require a high level of physical dexterity for students, they only need to be able to move and click a mouse

 There are no grammar, spelling, or punctuation errors,
 There are no racial or gender stereotypes
 The content matches required curriculum objectives

 The student has control of movement and sound in within the program
 The program loads without error.
