Written by experienced technology trainers, this book is an easy step-by-step guide that presents a six-step, teacher-tested sequential model that culminates in the completed design of a Web-Based Learning Model. The "Technical Corners," interspersed throughout, give a quick overview of what technical skills are needed to develop or complete a Guided Tour, Scavenger Hunt, CyberInquiry, or WebQuest. Sample projects are included in the "Exhibit Centers" of each chapter. A Web-Based Learning Model and this process of creating them is easily adaptable across all content areas and grade levels, and is great for use with staff development.
