Rafael Garcia Avila's Capstone Project effectively shows teachers how they can incorporate coding and robotics into math classes. I believe that he is consistent in reaching his audience of teachers on each page of his website by including examples, resources, and reflections that other teachers can identify with and learn from. The connections between Rafael's action research and the impact on his students' academic experiences are clear and inspiring.
Jennifer Ellison's Capstone Project is also consistently targeted toward teachers' application of games in teaching. I particularly appreciate how she vividly detailed her journey through the Innovative Learning program. From her "About the Author" page to her Research, Design Process, and Support & Next Steps pages, it's clear that Jennifer has focused on the process... the journey... that she's experienced. This keeps her project relatable. The organization of her visuals, writing, and pages within her website is clean and easily navigated. Teachers will also be the audience of my own capstone project, as many teachers try to implement student inquiry and then face seemingly insurmountable challenges. If students are to become independent researchers, they must be guided through the Inquiry Process by teachers who understand the processes involved and have digital and in-person support immediately available. Students will benefit from the work in my capstone project, but teachers (and possibly school librarians and administrators) would be most interested in guiding
