WEBQUEST: Call for Submissions

 

WHO:       The State of California and the School District

WHAT:     The State of California needs your help. There are currently lists of standards that your teachers are required to complete in each core subject area. In order to enhance your learning, you are requested to create an online project that will help to address at least three of these standards. The experience must be created using the WEB QUEST format.

                 Although there are many standards, we would like you to focus on those standards for the middle school grades 6,7,8.

                 Each webquest must address a core standard in the content area, and in the writing and reading areas as well.

WHEN:    Due in two-three weeks.

HOW:       Talk to your core teachers, review the textbook, or think about things you wish could have been covered differently or that you may have understood better if presented in a different manner.

WHERE: Your WEBQUEST will be posted online as a resource for the staff here at ESUSD.
