 * Planning for a Workshop on Webquest**

1. **Auththentic Assessment Activity**- Create an authentic and effective webquest that cover the standards based on their grade. 2. **Presentation-** Multimedia presentation that covers the concept but includes narration and graphics that relate to the topic. Therefore, I plan to include a PowerPoint and internet web tools throughout the workshop. 3. **Graphic Organizer-** The graphic organizer will include the six important parts that are incorporated when designing a webquest. 4. **Pre-training**- I plan on creating a word cloud to discuss and introduce important terminology and concepts that will be covered in the workshop.

Begin Development **Working Page in Wiki:** Now that you have determined the authentic assessment activity you want to develop for your workshop, create a working page in your wiki where you can begin planning. (Note: This page will not be available to your participants.) Your Instructor will check on your progress throughout the quarter. 1. How will you include Mayer’s principle of active processing in your authentic assessment activity? What kind of product will your participants create to demonstrate their learning using multimedia technology? Participants of the workshop will create a mind map to collaborate with their grade level to brainstorm about a topic they will use to create an effective webquest and the final assessment activity is an effective webquest for their grade level to utilize in the classroom.  2. What kind of multimedia presentation must you create to effectively present key concepts and skills to your participants (video, PowerPoint, podcast, screencast, interactive tutorial, or other)? How will you include Mayer’s principles of dual coding and limited capacity in your presentation? I plan to use PowerPoint to create an effective multimedia presentation, which will incorporate words, pictures and narration which will be applying Mayer’s principle of dual processing that humans have separate information processing channels for visual and auditory information. I plan to enhance limited capacity in my presentation by I plan to include few relevant words and few pictures to hold my audience attention and interest. I will also include a tutorial that will provide graphics and information for participants to sign up and create a mind map using Webspiration. 3. What kind of graphic organizer would be best to give your participants to help facilitate learning in your workshop? <span style="display: block; line-height: normal; margin: 0in 0in 10pt 1in; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto; mso-margin-top-alt: auto;"><span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman','serif'; font-size: 12pt;">To best facilitate learning in my workshop I plan to create a mind map using webspiration focusing on the six essential parts of a webquest. <span style="display: block; line-height: normal; margin: 0in 0in 10pt 1in; mso-list: l0 level1 lfo1; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto; mso-margin-top-alt: auto; tab-stops: list .5in; text-indent: -0.25in;"><span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman','serif'; font-size: 12pt;">4. What concepts in your presentation will require pre-training before you begin the workshop? How will you use multimedia to engage your learners during the pre-training phase? <span style="display: block; line-height: normal; margin: 0in 0in 10pt 1in; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto; mso-margin-top-alt: auto;"><span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman','serif'; font-size: 12pt;">Participants will have to have knowledge about what a webquest is and how to use a webquest in the classroom. They will also have to have knowledge about mind maps and using Webspiration. Prior to the workshop I plan to send participants an email with the tutorial and instructions on how to sign up on Webspiration. I plan to use a word cloud and videos to engage the learners during the pre-training phase. <span style="display: block; line-height: normal; margin: 0in 0in 10pt 1in; mso-list: l0 level1 lfo1; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto; mso-margin-top-alt: auto; tab-stops: list .5in; text-indent: -0.25in;"><span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman','serif'; font-size: 12pt;">5. What equipment will you need to conduct your workshop (projector, laptops for each pair of participants, Internet connections, other)? <span style="display: block; line-height: normal; margin: 0in 0in 10pt 1in; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto; mso-margin-top-alt: auto;"><span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman','serif'; font-size: 12pt;">For the following workshop I will need a projector, all participants will be required to bring their laptops, wireless internet connections, and teaching materials, such a T.E., curriculum guides and standards so that each grade level will be able to collaboratively create an effective webquest. <span style="display: block; line-height: normal; margin: 0in 0in 10pt 1in; mso-list: l0 level1 lfo1; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto; mso-margin-top-alt: auto; tab-stops: list .5in; text-indent: -0.25in;"><span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman','serif'; font-size: 12pt;">6. What online applications might you use? <span style="display: block; line-height: normal; margin: 0in 0in 10pt 1in; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto; mso-margin-top-alt: auto;"><span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman','serif'; font-size: 12pt;">Webspiration and Youtube <span style="display: block; line-height: normal; margin: 0in 0in 10pt 1in; mso-list: l0 level1 lfo1; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto; mso-margin-top-alt: auto; tab-stops: list .5in; text-indent: -0.25in;"><span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman','serif'; font-size: 12pt;">7. How will your participants collaborate on their projects? How will you group them to create authentic assessment in your workshop? <span style="display: block; line-height: normal; margin: 0in 0in 10pt 1in; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto; mso-margin-top-alt: auto;"><span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman','serif'; font-size: 12pt;">Participants will be grouped by grade level, which would consist of 4-6 in a group. Each group will have an opportunity to share, view and assess each webquest using a rubric.
