I found this cool WebQuest that allows students to explore the important topic of global warming. Following the general template of the Webquest, I will have the students play different roles in their group and do their research on the web in preselected websites. On the website, the roles outlined are: Climate Consultant, Emission Consultant, Impact Consultant, Action Consultant. The students, after recieving their role, have the responsibility to research what they specialize in. Afterwards, they will conduct the research necessary in their field. I will then have the students compile the results in their group into one big report on Powerpoint. They will then present it to the class. This will result in a big picture of what is happening today with global warming. This activity teaches the important lesson of global warming while requiring students to conduct web-based research and to learn the technology necessary to compile a report (with the required media).
