My WebQuest, Creatures of Hispanic FolkLore!

Students and WebQuest

Students working on WebQuest learn more than just one standard by these assignments. I think the best 2 are Standard 1. Creativity and Innovation,create original works as a means of personal or group expression. and Standard 3. Research and Information Fluency locate, organize, analyze, evaluate, synthesize, and ethically use information from a variety of sources and media.

WebQuest and Teachers Standard

WebQuest help teachers develop technology-enriched learning environments that enable all students to pursue their individual curiosities and become active participants in setting their own educational goals, managing their own learning, and assessing their own progress. Which is standard 2 Design and Develop Digital-Age Learning Experiences and Assessments.

Day 20 WebQuest

I Chose the WebQuest Creatures of Hispanic Folklore. The WebQuest should have diffrent colors and needs pictures. Links need to be changed and there should really be more of a variety of creatures to pick from to research. I will try to add at least 3 more creatures.

Day 19, meeting NETS

Standard 2 Communication and Collaboration and standard 3 Research and Information Fluency are addressed in the activities of WebQuest for students. Standard 2 addressing working collectively and individually and 3 creating assignments by the use of research and individual higher level of thinking.

Day 19 Webquest

The best WebQuest we explored as a group was Unraveling the Underground Railroad. This WebQuest fit 3 of the 4 roles. This WebQuest promoted learning activities for all students to participate in, individually and as a group; everyone would have their share to do. This activity promoted higher levels of thinking, from research to empathizing and role-playing. Students would have to really apply themselves to complete this activity and would walk away with a higher understanding and greater knowledge of the subject and create feelings of empathy and sympathy. The tech of it was well done. The color was appropriate for the subject. Good use and amount of pictures. Sharing the roles by the use of pictures. Great amount of links for research, resources, and credits. Having the activity creating several points of view is a wonderful idea.

Day 18

Today we watched the digital stories that a 5th grade class created. These digital stories help students meet the ISTE NETs for students by promoting students to collaborate and communicate to a creative end. The students did a rather good job on their digital stories.
