| The Teacher Page can be long or short and sometimes may not be
included at all. Some WebQuests even have parallel Teacher sites
that explain each part of the WebQuest in detail to teachers who
might use it (a different page for task, process, evaluation, etc.). Information you
could include:
- The title of the WebQuest.
- What the class subject is and why you created this WebQuest. For
example, I created this WebQuest as an alternative activity to
writing an ordinary book report.
- Who the students are (grade and ability). What should they
already know before they do this.
- The standards you tied this to.
- What kind of learning outcomes are you teaching? For example as
well as information, your goal is that students will recognize that
"truth" and "opinion" are not always clearly separable. What kind of
thinking skills will they use?
- How long do you think it will take? One lesson or more?
- How will the groups be divided? Will students work on their own?
- What will you need to explain beforehand?
- What skills does the teacher need, if any?
- How may you vary it for length or other circumstances?
- What resources, beyond those mentioned in the student section,
that you used. Include things like parents or volunteers.
- Alternative ways of conducting the process and your anticipated
time-line.
- Why you chose this particular WebQuest to create. (What is
uniquely useful about it.)
