My WebQuest

My WebQuest is about the American Revolution. Students are to collaborate with each other and make a newspaper. This WebQuest incorporates 4 of the INTASC+1 Standards. Those standards are 1,3,6, and 11. This helps students learn because it allows then to collaborate, inquire, and use computers with an interesting and measurable outcome. This activity fosters collaboration and active inquiry. Here is an example of another WebQuest - http://tinyurl.com/kq7u9o

My Inspiration

My Inspiration project deals with historical people from the Revolution. The project is interactive. Students have to match each fact to the person it relates too. I have also included hyperlinks for each person that presents resources to help the students located the correct facts. This project helps foster inquiry about each historical figure. It is also very easy to use and puts all the facts in an easy format. Here is an example of an Inspiration project.
