Anatomy class assignment

Muscle Anatomy Webquest Creation

For this assignment you are to work in pairs.

A Webquest is an activity that uses the internet. Students are given a worksheet which directs them to websites all over the internet to review, research, play games, and answer questions about any particular topic.

You are responsible for creating a webquest about muscle anatomy (in other words you’re the teacher). In this webquest you must have the following:

1. 10 questions about muscle anatomy that can be researched on site YOU provide. You ask the questions that your students would have to fill in on the worksheet.

2. A link to a muscle picture labeling site.

3. A link to a muscle anatomy online quiz.

4. A link to a muscle anatomy game (crossword, etc…)

These things exist in large numbers! You will find them.

Please make your webquest presentable, user-friendly, and fun. But most of all, make sure it helps your students learn muscle anatomy!


Instead of emailing this product to me or printing it, please post it to this class blog…
www.kieserspace.blogspot.com

Please DO NOT put the answers to your webquest on the version that you post.

The best technique for this is to create your webquest as a Word document, save it to the computer you’re using (write the number down), then copy and paste your webquest to the blogspot when you’re done.

Be clever!
