Project #5
The task of project five was to create a
webquest. A web quest is basically a lesson; this lesson has an activity that
the students will have to complete. This whole lesson is online, what they
need to know about the topic, what their project is going to be and how it
should be done etc... So to set up the web quest you have to pick a subject and
a grade level to focus on. Then you map out exactly what the students need to
know in order to complete the activity that you give them to do. For this
project our group chose to use Google sites to create our webquest. We also
used filezilla to upload all of our work. This project would be very useful to
teachers to use because then we could share webquest’s with each other. It
would also be very useful in the classroom. Putting the webquest on the projector
in the front of the room where everyone can see and we can go over it as a
class. In order for students to make their own webquest’s they would need a lot
of prior knowledge to their topic and they would need to know where to find
resources of their own. Having the students make a webquest is defiantly
possible but it would take some time to do.
