Collaboration+Notes

This page is for our discussion about creating a WebQuest. According to the definition of WebQuest (attached as a page in this WIKI) we can start with the following actions: 1. Make a sheet of learning goals. This sheet has already been created and is part of this WIKI, but is currently blank. 2. Choose topics for each person to research 3. Someone should create our WebQuest introduction including purpose and the activity 4. Someone should create directions for the WebQuest user including a list of what to do and how to do it.

Here is a sample goal, feel free to change and tweek- Our goal is to expose younger children (grades 4-6) to Shakespeare at their own level. As part of this goal the children should be able to act out a scene from a Shakespeare play.

Carrie: I would be interested in covering the introduction of the life and times of William Shakespeare. Michael:I would be interested in doing a portion on some of Shakespeare's most famous works.

Carrie: If we are each going to do 2 slides, we need to break our Webquest "directions" into 3 sections. Are these supposed to be generic directions, or are they specific to our Shakespeare Webquest?

Michael: Hey guys, I just uploaded my "Famous works" PowerPoint. It's pretty funny. I think it includes all of the necessary slide show components for our grade, just in case you can't figure out how to do something on yours. Let me know if I need to do something else, thanks!

Fatima: Hi guys. I put up a page on introducing Willy to the rugrats. I hope its good enough. If not, let me know. I'll get to work on the powerpoint now.
