Creating Student Generated Web Sites Slide 13 of 37 Tammy: When teaching students and staff how to access information, they need to know how to use a variety of resources. Younger students they should use databases that have already sifted appropriate sites for their age. When these databases sift information they evaluate whether or not the information is appropriate for the younger student. For older students, they need to be taught the different kinds of search engines and search strategies. Visit this web page for more information on search engines: http://www.siec.k12.in.us/~west/edu/wwwdo/step2.htm For staff, they need to know what educational databases are already on line for them to use as well as search strategies. Visit this web page for a list of educational databases: http://www.siec.k12.in.us/~west/edu/wwwdo/step3.htm Teachers need to teach students how to evaluate whether or not the information is accurate. In the bibliography that is in the handout, there is a reference to an article written by Alan November called, " Teaching Zack to Think ." This is a junior high boy that found information about the Holocaust and in this article, it disputed the fact that this event took place in history. It is important that students are taught to question the validity of what they have read on the Internet.

Create Curriculum Units Using the World Wide Web Resources Lesson 6 Online Projects and Treasure Hunts You will be able to: 1.Describe the benefits of telecommunications projects. 2.Locate online telecommunications projects. 3.Create a treasure hunt to be used with the final project. There are many quality telecommunications projects available on the Internet. YOU can enrich your curriculum and the learning experience of your students by participating in these projects. YOU can also create your own telecommunications project. An example is a treasure hunt. The Internet has often been referred to as the great educational equalizer because of the opportunities students have to interact with scientists, researchers, artists, and teachers regardless of the students' ability or socioeconomic level. Projects are a great way to begin to expand the world for your students. Telecommunications projects can be very involved and/or competitive. Students can follow NASA days before a launch and communicate with scientists via email. Students can follow a cross-country journey of researchers traveling across a continent to learn about different cultures. Students can drop in on explorers in Africa and view pictures of the area and read field notes.

University Press of New England Questing A Guide to Creating Community Treasure Hunts Clark, Delia; Glazer, Steven A guide to creating treasure hunts that teach and share the special places in your community. Inspired by the British pastime of "letterboxing," questing has become one of the fastest growing recreational-educational activities on this side of the Atlantic. In scores of communities, people from toddlers and teens, parents and grandparents follow maps, clues, and rhyming riddles seeking treasure boxes hidden in natural and cultural locations. In this book, two experts in community education explain how individuals and organizations can create and organize permanent quests to foster place-based education, stewardship, adventure, and fun. In the process of undertaking quests participants "celebrate and strengthen community life" by forging "lifelong connections to the distinct landscapes and cultural features of their home ground." This book is intended to offer inspiration and practical advice for parents, teachers, community group leaders, and others interested in learning about where they live and building community ties through questing. Questing draws upon the well-established success of a program in New England in which individuals, students, and organizations create clues and maps highlighting the special places and stories of their community. The book presents a rationale for place-based education and quest program goals and objectives that can easily be implemented in any community.
