 Purpose and Background
This assignment requires
designing a Web Quest or an Internet lesson plan for students. The lesson can
focus on using the Internet as a research tool or consulting the Internet to
complete a step-by-step project.
Review models done by former EDUC 570 students before you attempt your
own project.
Your written instructions
to the students need to include links for them to access online materials.
You are encouraged to have students or colleagues try out your plan. Your
final project is composed of 2 components: a write up for teachers and the
actual plan on the Internet for students to do.
Required Parts of Plan
Part 1: The Teacher
Plan
Introduction: state the unit of study and the grade level and give
some background about the curriculum fit or unit of study. Orient your
readers on the Internet who read your plan as to its appropriateness within a
curriculum or unit of study. The introduction should grab your audience’s
attention.
Objectives: state these as measurable, student-behavioral outcomes
(the objectives will need to align with your assessment of the student
learning outcomes, so be sure to check your objectives while writing the
assessment section of the plan)
Materials: list materials students will need to complete the lesson
Web Sites: give names and addresses
Lesson Sequence: list and explain activities, and include time
allotments
Follow Up: list any necessary follow up, such as homework assignments
Assessment: list and explain how learning objectives will be assessed
(see note above)
Handouts: include assignment sheets or other instructional handouts,
preferably ones that you design, and provide hyperlinks to these materials
Part 2: The Student
Plan
Provide the necessary overview students need to get started (this will
be the bulk of the information students will need to succeed, so be as clear
as possible in presenting this information)
Provide the links students need to do the plan
Include instructional handouts and directions to help student do the
plan
Let students know how their work will be evaluated
Students viewing the plan on the Internet need to be able
to find all the necessary parts by using your hyperlinks.
