Day 28 - WebQuest 2

At the begining of today's class, please turn in your hard copy of responses to the questions for WebQuest project. Also, you will need to send me your BLOG URL to yichunhong@gmail.com with subject as blogURL_yoursession_yourname.

By now, you and your partner should find good ideas for your WebQuest. Now let's put your ideas into a usable format. How do you ensure that students will be engaged in your WebQuest activity? View the WebQuest Taxonomy of Tasks to determine in what category your original WebQuest will fall. Now that you have an idea for your WebQuest, how will you design the entire process section for your learners? What are the major components of a WebQuest and what is the role of each in the learning activity? Get started writing your own WebQuest by using WebQuest Design Process as a guide. You can also use the WebQuest Design Patterns page as a reference.

Now that you have an idea for content flow how do you put it all together into a web-based learning activity?
1. Go to Google Page Creator
2. Create Subpages for your WebQuest, which includes introduction page, task page, process page, evaluation page, conclusion page, and teacher page.
3. Use the WebQuest Design Process and the WebQuest Design Pattern as your references to complete each component for your WebQuest.
4. You can also use the student samples from previous semester to get you ideas on your WebQuest

For next Tuesday's class:
1. Spend some time working on your WebQuest, making sure to check the project description and rubric to ensure you are including all required elements. Have at leaslt your introduction page and task page completed by Monday's class.
