Website review: For the wits

The internet is full of wonderful sites. The more we dig in, the more awesome stuff we find. The web has limitless educational, entertainment and informative content. However, sometimes it really becomes difficult to choose the best from the many available resources. Resources, which are clear, easy to use and accessible to all, are the ones which bring change in the society, and www.wittywe.com does the right job in this regard.

WittyWe, with its powerful content, is a perfect learning platform for kids and youngsters. The site uses techniques, which include activities and videos often presented through storytelling, resolving real life cases, learning through play and self-teaching. In short, the site works in making complex educational concepts and real-life skill topics fascinating and easier to comprehend, even by small kids.

What interests me in a site is its visuals, colour scheme, interactivity and how well it engages and how effectively it convinces its visitors to read the content and Wittywe proves good enough in doing this job.

For instance, the use of multi-coloured — scheme in almost everything from illustrations to the headlines, titles or to the description looks wonderful. Apart from that, the use of animations and illustrations, instead of using real life pictures is outstanding. Although you will find the topics covered here are also present on other sites, yet, the topics like economics, law and entrepreneurship are hardly discussed.

You can choose the topics from top of the homepage such as “Arts and music”, “Economics”, “Medicine”, “Law”, “Personal life skills”, “Biology”, “Entrepreneurship”, “Communication and media”, as well as “Life skills”, “Time management”, “Money management”, “Social awareness”, “Healthy living”, etc.

All these topics have videos, online courses, and/or guided suggestions through “Ask the Professor”. In this last option, you tell the professor what you are interested in by theme, grade and difficulty level, and he suggests appropriate videos.

Overall, the site is bliss for having everything under one roof, but you will notice that not all content is free. To have access to all the stuff present on the site, you must subscribe but if you don’t, you can still use and enjoy the resources for 90 days which is a free trial.

With its exciting presentation of complicated topics, WittyWe is a must-see site to go through. Visit: www.wittywe.com
