4. Description of the process. The Process block in a WebQuest where the teacher provides clearly suggested steps that learners should go through in completing the task. It may include strategies for dividing the task into subtasks, descriptions of roles to be played or perspectives to be taken by each learner. The instructor can also use this place to provide learning advice and interpersonal process advice, such as how to conduct a brainstorming session. For example, the WebQuest Pollution and Solutions athttp://edweb.sdsu.edu/triton/ PollSol/ Week1. html.
5. Guidance provides guidance on how to organize information. This can take the form of guiding questions, or descriptions to complete organizational frameworks such as timelines, concept maps, or caused- effect diagrams.
6. Evaluation. The Evaluation block is a new addition to the WebQuest model. Each WebQuest needs a rubric for evaluating students' work. Evaluation rubrics would take a different form depending on the kind of task given to the learner. To help teachers to deal with evaluation Dodge has developed A Rubric for Evaluating WebQuestswhich can be found at http://webquest.sdsu.edu/webquestrubric.html.It allows teachers to assign a score to a given WebQuest and provides specific, formative feedback for the designer.
7. Conclusion. The Conclusion section of a WebQuest provides an opportunity to summarize the experience, to encourage reflection about the process, to extend and generalize what was learned, or some combination of these. It's not a critically important piece, but it rounds out the document and provides that reader with a sense of closure.
