WebWork Part 2

Redefining WebWork Part 2

It has become clear that we will not be provided with HTML authoring tools adequate for the purpose. As a result, I'd like to present some options for you to complete Part 2 of WebWork. You have the option to use other means to create a media-rich lesson, including Microsoft Word and PowerPoint. You will still upload these products to the web server, but may find it easier to create the lesson if you don't have to use HTML.

It is suggested you follow the model of a WebQuest for Part 2. The following links will get you started.

• Take a WebQuest about WebQuests. Form a group around the age group you teach
  • Elementary Version
  • Middle School/High School Version
• A Roadmap for Designing WebQuests
• Creating WebQuest

Project Time

The remainder of class will be spent on Project development
