My Five good Wequest:
Bones and the Badge
http://projects.edtech.sandi.net/kearny/forensic/
I really like this web quest. It has really good graphs and is very easy to follow. I also like this web quest because it requires the students to use logic and their problem solving techniques. This web quest is a forensics web quest (which I teach). Each student will be given a case and they will look at different pieces of evidence and they will have to solve the crime. The students will work in groups and they each will have an assigned function.
Evolution Web quest
http://www.biologycorner.com/quests/evolquest/index.html
I like this web quest because students find a way to answer their own questions. On this web quest the students have to come up with different ideas what evolution is? And how would they answer questions about evolution that they don’t know. After they are done doing research and answering these questions they will post what they have learned for other students to learn from their research. I also like this web quest because students have to create a websites and they are able to use technology at a higher level.
I am Joe’s….
http://www.ufrsd.net/staffwww/stefanl/Webquest/joe/index.htm#introduction
This web quest is very original students will be assigned one part of the human body system such as the heart, the lungs or any other organ. Students will then research info about their assigned parts and they will type an essay on the first person narrative. Students should include as many details as they can and it could go something like this “"I’m certainly no beauty. I weigh 12 ounces, am red-brown in color, and have an unimpressive shape. I am the dedicated slave of —well, let’s call him Joe. Joe is 45, ruggedly good-looking, has a pretty wife, three children and an excellent job. Joe has made it. Me? I’m Joe’s heart." I actually really like this web quest because it includes writing as one of the biggest requirements. I also like the fact that I know my kids have really hard time writing and maybe this would be a better way of making them write. I also thought that maybe after they each have written their part would actually make it a song, I think they would really enjoy it.
APBioWikiWebQuest
http://scook.cuip.net/~speretz/wikiwebquest/webquest.htmI like this web quest because it doesn’t only require students to do research but they also have to present it to their peers. I like the fact that with this Web Quest students type something they learn and they also comment about the different things their peers have learned. I think is important for student to learn form their peers.
Rickshaw or Rowboat? Is Climate Change Coming http://teacherweb.com/BD/AIS_D/Rickshaw_or_Rowboat/index.html
Student research the topic of climate change and how is this affecting the earth and global warming. I like this web quest because is very easy to follow and the graphics are really cool.
