Explain your procedure:
I looked to dr. Newberry page and I read every thing in this page also I played the video and audio that dr. Newberry post it. I focused consideration of the colors; there are no points to follow to make the reading easily to understand.

List Any Problems Found:

* First, the email of the instructor is not hyper linked.

* Second, some of the colors that were used in the table too light and it was difficult to read. For example: the yellow color was hard to me to read it.

* Third, the table format wasn’t organized well for example; In the Media and Links table, only the video was in medal and the rest was in the right.

* Forth, the paragraph of the information part was not possible to read it because of the color, and be honest, it was terrible.

* Fifth, there are no descriptive links for the video and the audio”

Explain How to Correct These Problems:

* first, I like to hyper link the email address.

* Second, I will using dark and clear color such as; red, green, dark orange, dark purple and blue.

* Third, the table should be organized.

* Forth, I would like to use the same good quality of the video and audio but I will put more than one or add more links.

*Fifth, the paragraph of the information part, I would like to put it with out box and use dark color for example dark blue or black.

* Sixth, add descriptive names to the video and audio links.
