Terkait penyajiannya, sumber belajar ini dapat dikatakan cukup lengkap. Materi pembelajaran diuraikan secara mendetail dengan disertai contoh. Yang dapat ditingkatkan dari sumber belajar ini adalah cara penyampaian materi. Penyajiannya dapat menggunakan variasi lain, tidak sekedar memaparkan materi, sehingga siswa tidak sekedar menerima secara pasif, tetapi mengkonstruksikan pengetahuannya secara mandiri. Hal ini merupakan amanah pendekatan saintifik dari kurikulum 2013, yaitu agar pembelajaran lebih berpusat pada peserta didik dan melatih siswa menggunakan keterampilan berpikir aras tinggi.
