Please place your first and last name after your response.What did you learn from this activity?I learned that there are a number of factors that go into planning your own lesson. Remember this is not a lesson plan. It is an inquiry-based activity. I didn’t really know a lot about Woodstock and I learned quite a few things when going through potential resources to use for this assignment. This assignment also teaches you to work with your colleagues< good point and try to find a schedule that works for everyone, this seems especially significant information for when you are working with your colleagues at school and have to plan a lesson with them, to ensure standards are being met with your grade level. Learning to collaborate is an essential skill that is being reinforced when working with others to create a Webquest.Other ideas, comments or suggestions related to this activity.Very few assignments have us work with others in such a manner. I think that is unique to the online nature of this course. Thank you. I’ve been doing this for quite some time now. We had to work on this assignment despite our very different schedules. I also really liked this assignment had me learn about something that I didn’t really have much prior knowledge on. I know enough about the Cold War and the Vietnam war, and I knew enough about the counterculture of the time period but I knew very little about the Woodstock Music Festival specifically. Overall I think this was a very neat and informative activity to work on. Wonderful to read. Thank you. Angel CastilloWhat did you learn from this activity?What I learned from this activity is that it opened my eyes about lesson planning. See my comment above in Angel’s entry regarding lesson plans and inquiry based activities. Researching topics can be extensive. The rubric was a challenge because you have to conform it to your tasks that you want your students to complete. I liked the way you used relevant terminology Actually, the tasks must match the rubric because it will help keep you from straying from what you want your students to complete. There are many websites out there from educational institutions that have information on rubrics, such as the University of Colorado. See references for the link. Thank you. Other ideas, comments or suggestions related to this activity.I like this topic about Woodstock. I think other topics that compare and contrast to historical events is important for students to remember those events. For example with Woodstock in 1969, the Vietnam war was in full swing during this event. This is true. Perhaps a modified web quest. This is up to you. Nice observation. There were many Americans who opposed the Vietnam war. Students can see this comparison and discuss the reasons why these American’s opposed the war. Michelle ContrerasWhat did you learn from this activity?I learned from this activity is that we had to make a lesson< please see my comment related to lesson plans and inquiry based activities above. that was related to Woodstock. It was a very interesting topic that we had to do for this class. I think that it is important to know how we can evaluate our students when it comes to making lesson plans for our students. I also learned is that this was a very challenging assignment because we had to find websites and be able to relate it to the topic. It was also an eye opening experience for me because we had to figure this assignment by scratch and also be able to learn about Woodstock. Your students will love this. We also had to create a lesson plan that was related to Woodstock. Other ideas, comments or suggestions related to this activity.I also know that this activity was when the Vietnam War was going on during this time. Before I completed this activity, I had no idea what Woodstock was before I completed this activity. Students will be to know what the purpose of the Woodstock festival. I think that student will be able to what historical events that occurred during this time. I really thought that this was a nice project to work on because I think that this is an activity that we can do with our future students or students if we are currently teaching. This is true and lots of fun for your students.
