Welcome To My WebQuest!

Annotation

The purpose of this project was to create a WebQuest. We will publish this WebQuest and students will use it to research our specific topic. Our topic would be the life of a biome.
A biome is a large community characterized by particular areas, animals, plants, and climate.
We chose the  Great Barrier Reef as our biome. There are six links/steps that we had to create posing the problem, solution, biome, our home, our friends and family, and an introduction.
This project was very time consuming because it was made of numerous pages and a lot of information. I worked in a group of three and we all contributed to each page we created. We included pictures of our biome, our home, ourselves, and our friends and family. The WebQuest was created using Netscape Composer.  I am becoming very familiar with this program after all these projects! For easy navigation we included a task bar. This was difficult to construct at first but after a few attempts we mastered it!
I think the WebQuest is a great learning tool for students. It allows them to move at their own pace and it engages them. It gives them the opportunity to learn about a topic they may know nothing or little about. The WebQuest is a hands-on activity that students can navigate through themselves. The pictures are also very beneficial for visual learners. This is a great project to use in any classroom!
