AIDS
Not a bad site, and good for low bandwidth. The style is too busy though for students and they could get a bit distracted. Unfortunately the quiz's are not interactive so the students might find it a bit odd that they cannot click on the answers (which is what I tried to do).
But the questions are good although the myths being discounted cover only a segment of the myths around AIDS and HIV.
