Where to start...I did my Web Quest with Jessica Brown and Danielle Herring. We all created a Web Quest based on the F. Scott Fitzgerald book The Great Gatsby. We basically asked the students to create a map based on the locations mentioned in the book. As far as a title, we didn't really give it one. Our Web Quest is designed to push the students to open their books and look for the different locations and read the descriptions that go with those locations. This will hopefully help them to more fully grasp what is going on in the story. During this project, I have learned a great deal about Sea Monkey which is a program that I have never worked with before. I liked that you can get creative with it, but I didn't like that you can't manipulate the images the way I want and once you picked a page color, you're stuck with it. It was also impossible to copy and past without erasing all the words on the page. I think later on I will like it because I won't be getting graded on how well or not so well I do the Web Quest. I do like the idea of doing the Web Quest with students. However, I think it will be a little difficult if the class doesn't have daily access to computers.
