For your next assignment you will create a WebQuest. A WebQuest is an inquiry-oriented lesson format in which most or all the information that learners work with comes from the web. The model was developed by Bernie Dodge at San Diego State University in February, 1995 with early input from SDSU/Pacific Bell Fellow Tom March, the Educational Technology staff at San Diego Unified School District, and waves of participants each summer at the Teach the Teachers Consortium.Web Quests are scalable across all grade levels. WebQuests ARE NOT BORING TOPICAL RESEARCH PROJECTS. They often deal with ambiguity, and always combine higher order thinking and technology. WebQuests are interdisciplinary, often combining Language Arts, Science, Art, Math, Computer Technology. WebQuests require individuals and group members to create artifacts by following a carefully prescribed process that are a result of some information gathering or research on the Internet.
1.In groups of four complete the WebQuest about WebQuest.
