Evaluating Educational Software

    This link has a great program that allows students to click on certain areas of the body to discover a list of workouts asocciated with that muscle group. This is good for younger students who are becoming acquainted with the various muscle groups of the body. It could also be useful for older students who are trying to develop a good workout program.
