    Foreign Language WebQuests

  • Pinochet, Re-evaluating Foreign Policy
    •  study stHow can the United States maintain a strong committment to human rights and at the same time protect its foreign interests?
  • A Comparative Study
    • In an interdisciplinary study students will create a web page which compares the coastal areas of San Diego, California and Biarritz, France, by focusing on the following areas:
    location (area topography, longitude and latitude);
    marine life(type and quantity of fish and animals);
    kelp (quantity, production, uses);
    the ocean floor (topography, exploration);
    the fishing industry;
    recreation;
    water currents;
    meteorology.
  • Mexico City Earthquake
    • Students will be engaged in gathering information related to the subject of earthquakes in general (how they work, safety issues/emergency preparedness, history, etc...) and the Mexico City Earthquake in specific. Students will each assume one of the following roles:  photojournalist, city planner, emergency volunteer, college student in a collapsed dormitory, news reporter.

    Working together the students will design a multi-platform presentation (a computer newspage and a video interview) to convey their learned knowledge about this terrible natural disaster.
  • A WebQuest is an inquiry-oriented activity in which most or all of the information used by learners is drawn from the Web. WebQuests are designed to use learners' time well, to focus on using information rather than looking for it, and to support learners' thinking at the levels of analysis, synthesis and evaluation. The model was developed in early 1995 at San Diego State University by Bernie Dodge.  A variety of Webquests can be reviewed at San Diego State University and at San Bernadino County Schools, California.  There is even a WebQuest on how to write a Webquest. The ILT maintains a page with information on Webquests.
