 * usually (though not always) involve group work, with division of labor among students who take on specific roles or perspectives;
 * are built around resources that are preselected by the teacher. Students spend their time USING information, not LOOKING for it.

2. One webquest I found let's students explore Thanksgiving related subjects by v isiting web sites about the Pilgrims, the Wampanoag, and the famous harvest feast and learn new facts along the way. http://www.scholastic.com/scholastic_thanksgiving/feast/webquest.htm

3. An educator may want to use a webquest because it would be engaging for students, gets students moving, and makes learning fun for them.

4. Lesson plans are created to spell out what learning will take place. Lesson plans can give teachers the opportunity to think through their lesson and anticipate any problems that may arise.

5 . edTPA is a standardized assessment of teaching that is being required in many states. edTPA stands for educational Teacher Performance Assessments. ||
