A – ANALYZE

• Learners: Four Grade 4 Teachers

• Learning Goal: Learners will be able to use Zunal to build a WebQuest to include in a social studies lesson on medieval studies

• Topic: Using WebQuests to explore medieval life

D – Design - Workshop• Model Activity:

– What is a WebQuest?– Try a WebQuest (Learners will do the ‘Medieval Castle’

WebQuest I created using Zunal)– Teacher Talk – characteristics of a WebQuest (TPCK), tools

that could be used to create a WebQuest (TCK), and classroom management strategies to implement (TPK)

• Tool Demonstration:– The parts of a WebQuest– Using Zunal to use the WebQuest

• Practice Activity:– Setting up your own Medieval WebQuest using the

provided links and resources

D – Design – Learning Object

• Learning Goal: The learner will be able to set up a WebQuest.

• Tools: Video of how to set up a Zunal account and each section will be created using Screenrscreencast.

• The resulting video will be uploaded to YouTube and then embedded into my Digital Portfolio page.

D – Design – 1-to-1 Coaching Session

• Learning Goal: Using WebQuests in Grade 4 curriculum

• Targeted Audience: Grade 4 Associate Teacher

• Materials: Curriculum documents, Zunal

• Timeframe: February 2012

D – Develop• TimeFrame: Develop materials during winter

break for workshop delivery in February

• Materials List:– What is a WebQuest? Presentation – in SlideRocket

– Medieval Castle WebQuest (based on Grade 4 curriculum expectations, created using Z unal)

– Zunal 3 Step Tutorial – print /electronic copy created in Google Docs’

– “How to create a WebQuest in Zunal” Learning Object: created in Screenr

– Task for Learners: Guided WebQuest Set up –Instructions for creating a Medieval Castle WebQuest

I - IMPLEMENTATION

• Recruitment Plan: Ask the Grade 4 teachers in my placement if they would be interested in learning how to use WebQuests in their curriculums. If not, I will ask at the weekly faculty meeting for interested people.

• Scheduling: I will use Doodle scheduling to find a convenient time for participants.

• Evaluation: I will construct a Google Forms evaluation for my participants to complete after the workshop and the 1 to 1 coaching session.

E - EVALUATION

What I learned about teaching others how to use technology (to be completed after implementation):

Possible ideas to discuss in your reflection:

• Use of ‘teacher talk’ to highlight technology

• Use of tutorials and learning objects

• Use of curriculum documents to start thinking about tech-enhanced instruction

• Use of evaluations to improve your instruction

• Use of several types of technology training to support learners
