SPECIAL! Rethinking the WebQuest Taskonomy - How do you create an
authentic task that requires higher level thinking and is strongly tied to
the curriculum? How can you go beyond retelling and summarizing and doing
research reports that resemble, but aren't really, WebQuests? Since 1999,
the WebQuest taskonomy (http://webquest.sdsu.edu/taskonomy.html) has
helped teachers deal with these questions, and yet lots of
pseudo-WebQuests continue to be written. It's time for an update and
improvement. Join Bernie Dodge as he shares a first draft of a new
WebQuest Taskonomy and solicits your input. This session is intended for
those who have experience and interest in the WebQuest model, not novices.
