Digitalis
For the most part the information seemed to explain digitalis rather in depth. My only gripe was that the explanation of what digitalis is exactly is a little confusing. Is it a condition? a Chemical? or a steroid? In addition when do people come into contact/contract digitalis? With some clarification in that aspect the wiki-page will be much more effective. In addition the images were useful in the references they were trying to make such as the source of digitoxin from the fox glove and the diagram illustrating the function of calcium ions.

This wiki did an excellent job of explaining the chemical effects of digitalis medicine, as well as elaborating on its uses. The medicine's effect on muscle contractions was layed out in good detail, and the page also made it clear what sorts of conditions the extract is used to treat, partially through visual images. It also made it clear that it must be carefully perscribed, since the chemicals in the plant are technically toxins and overdose can be fatal. I would've liked to see something on the discovery of the medicine, as well as some info on the plant itself. And I also didn't get much of a sense that there was a "patient" involved, though in truth the description of this case study didn't clearly outline that there was one, so that may be a moot point.

hi guys! i really liked your wiki page, it was very well organized and informative to learning about digitalis, i didn't know what it was until i looked though your wiki page. Good job!!

Comments!
The wiki was well organized, and the content was great, but it didn't flow together as well as I would have liked. Having to return to the main page to see the next part of your project was a bit of a pain, especially since you did not include a link to it. Perhaps putting a link at the end of each section either to the splash page or to the next section would have been nice.

your page :)
i couldn't find the survey! :(
but I really enjoyed your page. I thought that the pictures were very helpful and engaging, and the material was presented in an interesting way. I also enjoyed the video clip. great job!

Diagrams
The diagrams that you included really supplement your explanation. The illustrations are very helpful for visual learners! Your writing was also very clear and thorough.

I've never heard about digitalis so it was really interesting to read about it. I like the organization of the page as well as the animations. Good job!

You guys did a good job. It's colorful and you explained pretty complex stuff easily.

I really like the layout of your wiki! The colors, texts, and photos all look really nice and I like how you made three separate pages instead of including it all on one page. The information was presented in a way that was easy to follow.
