I used one of the WebQuest templates off of the San Diego website to create the first draft of my WebQuest. It was the one-page WebQuest that has the links at the very top of the page. After getting feedback, I decided that it wasn't easy enough to navigate between the different steps. So instead of using another template, I decided to create my own on Microsoft PowerPoint. Each step I made a slide, and linked them all together with as navigation part of screen. Now on each part, you can quickly select a link to get to another step in the WebQuest. Plus, creating my own was much more meaningful than using a template. Take a look for yourself.

Alex, your presentation webquest is great! I really like it a lot- it runs very smoothly, is easy to read and presents a fun & teachable task for students. I like how you were able to break down the process steps putting each on a different slide. I think that chunking makes it easier for the students to follow and calculate. Great job! I think I may use your approach next time. Thanks for the example.

Nice job Alex. I like how you broke apart the tasks into indvidualized smaller tasks.
I hate to be the negative one. I'm sure if I were able to see your webquest I'd think it was terrific. Unfortunately I use FireFox and was able to view it. I saw a large white box and the links on the side.
Just something to keep in mind if you are really using it at school- make sure all the computers have the right browsers. The error I got said "This presentation contains content that your browser may not be able to show properly.

OK-I looked at it in IE and I agree it looks great! :) In fact I might go back and add more pictures to !
