ECI 541: Reading in the Content Areas

Picture
Course Artifact:
 
The WebQuest assignment required students to create an interactive website activity that could be implemented in a classroom setting.

My Project:
The WebQuest that I generated required 6th grade students to research a specific West-Central European country. After the research was completed students were asked to create an advertisement that promotes tourism for their assigned country.

Project Questions:
 1) How can having students complete a WebQuest enhance their knowledge of West-Central European Countries?
