Transcript of How to create a web quest in powerpoint
A WebQuest is an activity
usually created by teachers
for their students that leads
students to answer inquiries
using Web-based resources.
There’s an emphasis on using the information rather than just gathering it. Therefore, students should have to use analytical and critical-thinking skills to solve a
problem or question.
Introduction
Task
ProcessEvaluation
Conclusion
•Task: The details of the assignment. Tasks are
often numbered lists of items to accomplish in
order to complete the quest. Explain required
tools for documenting the results, such as
Microsoft Word or PowerPoint.
•Process: Here students
work together, develop plans
of action, and find ways to
solve the presented
problem. Here is where you
put the online resources for
students to investigate.
•Evaluation: The evaluation phase centers on a rubric, listing goals
for the quest and the standards by which performance will be
measured.
•Conclusion: This is a brief summary, usually congratulatory in tone, that wraps up the
project.
Start by conceiving your WebQuest and breaking it down into an introduction, task list, process, evaluation rubric, and
conclusion.
In PowerPoint, start a new presentation file and use the title slide for the name of the WebQuest.
On the second slide, enter the introduction text. Use more than one slide if you need to. You probably don’t want bullets.
Add a new slide and enter text for the task or tasks. If the tasks are numbered, select the text, and number the text by choosing the Numbering button on the
Formatting toolbar.
Add a new slide for the process section and provide any necessary instructions. Then create links to Web
sites that you want the students to use.
Add another slide for a congratulatory conclusion.
At this point, you should also add Action Buttons to enable students to easily move back and forth within
the WebQuest presentation.
When you’re done, test your hyperlinks before introducing your WebQuest to your students
