2. Task - The Task is a description of what the learner will have done at the end of the WebQuest. It could be a product and/ or verbal act. Go to WebQuest Taskonomy: A Taxonomy of Tasks http://edweb.sdsu.edu/webquest/taskonomy.html provides eleven different types of tasks, including journalistic, mystery, persuasion, and judgement tasks. 3. Process - The Process is the teacher's suggestions of the steps that learners should go through to complete the task. It may include approaches for dividing the task into subtasks, descriptions of roles to be played or perpectives to be taken by each learner. The Process description should be relatively short and clear. At Designer's Checklist http://www.ozline.com/webquests/checklist.html there is a checklist that offers some "friendly advice" to help develop you WebQuest. 4. Information Sources - The Information Resources is a list of web pages which the teacher has located that will help the learner accomplish the task. The Information Resources are pre-selected so that learners focus their attention on the topic rather than searching for necessary information. Resources for the students are not restricted to those found on the web. Resources for WebQuests may include textbooks, audiotapes, face-to-face interaction with other people, and numerous other sources of information. Resources may be designated for the entire group or for certain members of a group to share with the group. These two web sites help you select and search the Internet for the best web sites for your WebQuests - http://www.education-world.com/a_tech/tech001.shtml and http://www.education-world.com/a_tech/tech002.shtml 5. Evaluation - The Evaluation provides a means to measure the results. This is often done with an evaluation rubric. These sites show samples of rubrics used with students to evaluate WebQuests - http://www.tisdaleschooldiv.sk.ca/kanuski/teachers/web_assign/webquest/hunt/checklist.htm and http://edweb.sdsu.edu/webquest/webquestrubric.html . This site has a rubric to evaluate the Web Quest before the students use it, http://www.spa3.k12.sc.us/webquestrubric.htm . 6. Conclusion - The Conclusion provides an opportunity to summarize the experience, to encourage reflection about the process, to extend and generalize what was learned, or some combination of these. It rounds out the document and provides that reader with a sense of closure. |
