This
WebQuest was super easy to follow and the resources are all up to date and
ready for anyone to use. All of the links are up and working and organized
with different headings so that teachers and students know what the links
entail. The links are not just URLs either; they are titles that the links are
attached to in order for more organization.
The
WebQuest is based on notes, activities and worksheets all in one page for ultimate
learning. The student can easily go through in order which activity to do first
and what they need to look at.
There
were also other websites that were available for the student to get into and
learn even more about the topic of global winds and expand their knowledge into
the Coriolis Effect and other topics that are relative to global winds. This would
be good for students who finish early.
The
WebQuest, in my opinion, lacked steps for a student or teacher to follow. I’m
assuming there is a worksheet that lets the student know exactly what to do on
that day and helps guide them through the WebQuest, but I thought there could
be a separate link that will lead them to a guide. I also though that there
could be two separate pages: a teacher page and a student page for more
organization. Even directions above each of the links describing what they need
to do or what they are going to learn, such as objectives, would help this
WebQuest out.
Overall, I
enjoyed looking in to this WebQuest and actually used this in one of my
lessons. I printed out a page, however, to help the students and myself guide
through all of the descriptions and activities.
This webquest looked easy to follow and I really liked how they had additional resources listed that were both websites and videos. I struggle to find webquests that are all inclusive - meaning no materials you need to print out before or prepare ahead of time. So many of them come with worksheets to turn in or hard copies which aren't necessarily bad but it would be nice if somehow everything could be accounted for online.
