This project marks the conclusion of the Greek mythology section for this semester’. You have read lots of myths during this unit. Now, you will finally have a chance to show off what you have learned. You now have enough background knowledge about Greek mythology, that you will be prepared for your future classes.

This lesson will take place over the course of one week. The students will be introduced to the lesson and complete all of the research through the WebQust in one class period.

Even a novice teacher could utilize this lesson plan. Making sure that all of the students have signed up for their monologue is probably the most difficult part of this lesson.

The WebQuest model is best suited for learners who can navigate the Web on their own and can read the kinds of material commonly found on the Web. We can stretch the format to reach primary-aged learners, developmental English Language Learners and special populations by creating a facilitated WebQuest, one that requires an adult or older peer to drive things.

Use this page to create a script for that facilitator. The facilitator would print this page out and use it to guide their progress through the WebQuest.

This page will include step by step directions to the facilitator, including:

•What to say at each point in the process•What to click on•What questions and misconceptions to anticipate•How long to take at each point•When to direct learners to work away from the computer

To help the facilitator, you might want to include screen dumps of particular screens embedded with the directions of what to do at that point.

This is a wonderful lesson that allows students to be creative. It gives them a chance to use technology for their research and gives them the freedom of choice. This freedom usually promotes student interest in the subject and improved comprehension of Greek mythology.
