Article evaluation On Bird Flight

 * Is everything in the article relevant to the article topic? Is there anything that distracted you?                                                                                                                                   Yes the article is relevant to the topic it discusses the different types of bird flight and how a birds wings work.
 * Is any information out of date? Is anything missing that could be added?                                                                                                                                                                  The article seems to be currently up to date it has citations from as recently as 2014. To my knowledge I don't believe anything is missing from this article it looks like their is a lot of information regarding Bird Flight and all the different types.
 * What else could be improved?                                                                                                                                                                                                                                         I do not believe this page needs to be improved there is information about all the different types of bird flight as well as pictures and diagram
 * Is the article neutral? Are there any claims that appear heavily biased toward a particular position?                                                                                                                         Yes the article is neutral, the page just uses facts to talk about bird flight there is no biased toward a  particular position.
 * Are there viewpoints that are overrepresented, or underrepresented?                                                                                                                                                                              The viewpoints are overrepresented because there is a lot of information on this page so there is a lot of information to work with, if one had a question about bird flight this would be the perfect place to find your answer.
 * Check a few citations. Do the links work? Does the source support the claims in the article?                                                                                                                                   After checking a few citations in the article the links work and bring you to the correct page when you click on the highlighted word. Looking through the long list of sources the few I checked support the claim of the article and are used correctly.
 * Is each fact referenced with an appropriate, reliable reference? Where does the information come from? Are these neutral sources? If biased, is that bias noted?                                            Each fact is referenced by citing the author/ other source the information was found or having a word hyperlinked to another page.  The sources are reliable mostly coming from scholarly journals, university's or news articles. The sources are neutral there is no bias.
 * What kinds of conversations, if any, are going on behind the scenes about how to represent this topic?                                                                                                                   On the talk page there is one person one is trying to use his experience of seeing birds daily and how it is contradictory to the articles way of describing "hovering".
 * How is the article rated? Is it a part of any WikiProjects?                                                                                                                                                                                          After looking through the articles page it is not rated and is currently not part of any WikiProjects.
 * How does the way Wikipedia discusses this topic differ from the way we've talked about it in class?                                                                                                                            We have not talked about this topic in class.

"To determine eligibility, the school must conduct a full evaluation of the child in all areas of suspected disability. Based in part on the results of the evaluation, the school along with the parents meet to review the results and the child's current level of performance and to determine whether special education services are needed" edit. (adding on additional information)... In some cases people may go undiagnosed because of strong visual memories and oral skills they poses, this can mask symptoms of having of a impaired leaning disorder.

"However, some states have added specific timelines that schools must follow for the eligibility, IEP development, and IEP implementation milestones." edit... each state determines its own laws for identifying the criteria regarding education and how it should be followed.

"The IEP is intended to help children reach educational goals more easily than they otherwise would." edit.. four component goals are: conditions, learner, behavior, and criteria.
