Legacy Quest
How did many peoples contribute to the development of the United States?
 

Evaluation

Although you will work as a team to accomplish all tasks for each quest, each team member will be graded individually for their work.  Your work on each task will be evaluated and graded on the basis of six standards. These standards are designed to help you use the resources identified along your way to unravel the legacies woven by Native Americans, by religious groups, by other countries and cultures, and by women into the fabric of our country.

 Content Knowledge

Have you been able to find historically accurate and relevant details and make inferences from the primary sources in the web quest?

Application of Factual and Inferred Knowledge

Are you consistently able to use the historical details and inferences to answer the web quest questions? Is your work your own?

Depth

Have you used the web quest activities to explore possibilities and record thoughts?  Does your work show you have taken time and given your attention to the quest?

Focus on Task

When working in class do you consistently stay focused on the tasks and what needs to be done to complete web quest activities?

Grammar and Spelling

Is your work free of misspellings or grammatical errors?

Neatness and Legibility

Is your work  neatly done and  very legible in order to best communicate  ideas to the reader?

On each segment of your quest, we encourage you to use the knowledge and experience of your team members as a guide to generate new ideas and unravel the intricate patterns history has woven into our past.  Always remain steadfast in your quest to link historic details, inferences, and ideas you may draw from the tasks you undertake to the questions which guide your journey.However, remember too that you are responsible for your own achievement and accomplishment.  Do not just rely on the work of others. As always, you are the master of your own quest.
