 * Signaling Principle**:

__**Wandra's Examples**__:
 * Example 1:** Gettysburg Cemetery Dedication- @http://norvig.com/Gettysburg/sld001.htm. This presentation violates Mayer's Signaling Principle because it is text-only with no cues, it does include a graph but the presenter doesn't clarify the purpose of the graph, neither are cues given for it to help the learner relate to the overall purpose of the presentation.


 * Example 2:** How to Start an Open-Source Project - http://www.slideshare.net/gnunify/how-to-start-an-open-source-project. The elements of this presentation are very similar to the first example, containing text only with no cues and no graphic images signaling the overall purpose of the presentation.

__**Nikisha's Example:**__ The website is the following: @http://www.ellenfinkelstein.com/powerpointforteachers.html Click on Chapter 6- World Geography This website violates Mayer's signaling principle because the words do not provide cues about the purpose of the presentation. Also the power point does not include identify all of the 7 continents.
 * Example 1:**

http://www.slideshare.net/lisibo/inspiring-creative-teaching This power point presentation violates signaling because it does not give cues about the purpose of the presentation. Although the title page starts out with the title and the focus, the following slides lack any information on key concepts and skills but provides only visuals.
 * Example 2:**

Example 1:** [] - How to build a small cabin. This website violates Mayer’s signaling principle because it has a lot of written text with pictures but no explanation of the pictures. The terms are not defined on the website. It has a picture of a floor plan but does not provide any details about the floor plan.
 * __Theresa's Examples:__

[] - How to build your own website. This website violates Mayer’s signaling principle because the terms are not defined on the website and it has a lot of written text with no pictures. . There are several advertisement links.
