Introduction:
|
The introduction provides a brief overview of what the web quest is all about. It should engage the learner. |
|
Task:
|
What is the task? Make sure that the task is doable and interesting. It could be posed as a single question. The task should require students to analyze an array of information to find the answer. |
|
Process:
|
Describe in detail the process the learner should go through to complete the task. It should be broken into clearly described steps. Use bullets or point form if possible. Be sure to include some guidance on how to organise the information that is gathered. If the web quest is a group activity include instructions on how you intend the students to collaborate. |
|
Resources:
|
The information sources needed to complete the task are included here. Information sources include web sites, links to web based articles, experts available via email and/or searchable databases on the net. If you wish to include materials not on the web please make sure that they are easily and readily available to the learner. It is very important that the learner is guided to the places you wish them to investigate and that they are not left to "wander" through the World Wide Web.
In the fields below you can add up to 10 internet links to your web Quest. To add a link enter the complete address of the resource into a "Link" field (remember to include the "http://"). Enter a descriptions for each link in its associated "Description" field.

Evaluation:
|
Cleary describe the outcome for the web quest. This is generally a written/oral report or a multimedia presentation presented individually or in a group. |
|
Conclusion:
|
It is a good idea to include an activity that requires the learners to reflect on what they have learned. Encourage them to extend what they have learned into other area. Remember the web quest should encourage students to analyse and synthesize information, not just gather it. |
