AdamG says, "enjoyed it"

BernieD says, "OK... let's move on to a second one."

Jan_NS says, "several of us have identified the strengths of a K-3 WQ -
student engagement, resources and information that is
unavailable in other forms, simplicity and visual appeal."

BernieD says, "One thing to be sure to check out: go to the teacher page
and click on Process, and from there click on the link to
t-script.html."

Marcia [guest] says, "I am getting script errors when I attempt to enter
this webquestso I can't view it. Is anyone else
having this problem."

DebbieH says, "Great pictures of insects"

JaniceF says, "I have some problems with this one"

BernieD says, "hmmmm... I wonder why? There's nothing exotic about it."

Judi-2 says, "depending on what version of browsers... even not exotic can
cause problems with Javascript"

JaniceF says, "the teachers I worked with were looking at a different
webqueston insects and noted that there are so many insects.
Why should the teacher decide a few to study. Also much of
the quest seems about fact finding."

BernieD says, "I pointed out the t-script.htm because it's a part of the
WebQuest template that most people don't make use of. It's a
place to write up a script for a teacher or aid to use while
reading the page to the kids and clikickingfor them."

CynthiaM asks, "I'm not sure I would call this a true WebQuest. Where is
the transformation of information?"

BernieD says, "(clikickingis how it's spelled when you've filled up the
window and can't see what you're typing.)"

KarenRL says, "Interesting. I agree with JaniceF. Perhaps the students
should pick their own insect and develop a report or some
other activity on their own insect."
