WebQuest

This is my WebQuest assignment, where I created an online guideline for a student assignment. I provided #|students with instructions and resources on to create their Tornado Safety Pamphlet.

I enjoyed the assignment and found it fairly simple and straightforward. I think all teachers should know how to create WebQuests for their students, especially those in the upper elementary- post- secondary grades.

I plan to use WebQuest in my own teaching, especially if I teach second or third grade. This technology may be suitable for children in preschool-first grade only if more graphics and recordings are used instead of text. Students of this age would also need a lot of verbal directions. It would be incredibly useful to older students to learn how to use the Internet and how to sift through the massive amount of information they are exposed to to find the information they actually need. Also, it would be great for students to have the assignment guidelines on the Internet so the guidelines don't get lost- elementary #|school children aren't exactly known for their organizational skills.
