Instructional Applications of the Internet - July 1

Today, I completed and submitted my WebQuest.  The WebQuest, as I mentioned in my previous post, was about the different data representations that 8th Graders should be familiar with and the instances in which they are best used.

I used Zunal to create the WebQuest.  I felt that it was easy to create because of its simple step-by-step, fill-in-the-blank set-up, but at times wished that I had a bit more freedom than the site provided.  My site is at this link:

The one thing that I had the most difficulty with was the Evaluation page.  I had wished that I could change the dimensions of the rubric table to fit the needs of my assignment (or task), but found a way to work around it.

All in all, I found creating the WebQuest to be relatively easy and quick, especially in relation to its usefulness.
