I thought your website was very well written and easy to understand. I found the information to be very well written.

Technical Remarks:

Print not quite as easy on the eyes as I would like for it to be.

Used in course? Yes

The fascinating topic of the golden ratio is introduced, and the explained further in several activities. The activities discuss the appearance of the Golden Ratio in the Parthenon, the Mona Lisa, and in nature. The cite also shows how to construct a golden rectangle and golden spiral through easy to follow steps. At the end of the cite there is a quiz to see what we have learned. This cite does a good job of explaining a very interesting subject.
