Put the Title of the Lesson Here (Teacher) [ Student Page ] Title Introduction Learners Standards Process Resources Credits Teacher Page A WebQuest for 7th Grade (English) Designed by Stephanie Strickland [email_address] Based on a template from The WebQuest Page Evaluation Teacher Script Conclusion Process Continued

13. Introduction (Teacher) [ Student Page ] Title Introduction Learners Standards Process Resources Credits Teacher Page Evaluation Teacher Script Conclusion This lesson was started for a technologies course for teachers at Colorado State University. The idea was to design a Webquest on something we enjoy. The lesson is trying to get students to have fun while learning about history. The idea is to get students reading and writing about history while learning about past events. The 1960s was important to America’s history, it is when Women and Black people gained the right to vote, Vietnam happened, and art, music, and fashion had a revolution. Students should be aware of our history that influenced today and having them do an activity that is fun and gets them involved will help them to learn. Process Continued

14. Learners (Teacher) [ Student Page ] Title Introduction Learners Standards Process Resources Credits Teacher Page Evaluation Teacher Script Conclusion The lesson was designed for a 7 th grade language arts class. While this is mostly a history lesson since it is on the 1960s, the students are being graded on their writing on the brochure. It would be a great lesson to do with both history and language arts. This could be adapted to an older audience as well to help them learn about American history. The rubric would have to be adapted to grade the students on history more than language arts if needed.

Once you have picked a template and have put the information needed on there pick out some pictures that have creative commons license and go with the 1960’s (flickr.com is a great place for this) 5. Prepare a quick presentation on two key facts on your brochure and why you have put those on there. This is just for a 7 th grade English class. Two 50 minute class periods would be needed to complete this project. The first day would be for the students to gather information for the brochure and on the second day they would make the brochure and quickly present it. This project could be done in collaboration with a Social Studies class since it is over a time period. This project could be done by a teacher with simple knowledge of technology, they would just need to know how to use the internet and Microsoft Publisher. Process Continued

18. Resources (Teacher) [ Student Page ] Title Introduction Learners Standards Process Resources Credits Teacher Page For the students to be able to do this lesson they would need to be able to access the internet and use it. They would also need the program Microsoft Publisher to create the brochure. One of the web sites has videos on the 1960’s so speakers or headphones to listen to those would be needed and a video player program such as Window’s Media Player would be useful. One teacher would be able to facilitate this lesson, but that depends of the class size. They would just need to make sure that the students are on task and working on what they are supposed to be doing. Evaluation Teacher Script Conclusion Process Continued
