Theses Digitization Project

The project presents a web-based component for a tutor training program at College of the Desert, Palm Desert, California. The application is designed to be responsive and adaptable to the tutor's needs.

Evaluating Webquests And The Needs Of A Webquest Rubric, Kimberly Marie Rountree Jan 2005

Evaluating Webquests And The Needs Of A Webquest Rubric, Kimberly Marie Rountree

Theses Digitization Project

Investigates how teachers evaluate WebQuests in an effort to describe and identify a common, generalizable rubric that new users of WebQuests could use. The investigation included how often the teachers who were surveyed used WebQuests in the classroom, and what these teachers used to evaluate WebQuests. Examines whether teachers are using rubrics they had created themselves, or WebQuest rubrics that are provided for them.
