Evidence+of+Evolution+Webquest,+Podcast,+Screencast

This webquest is designed to help the students understand the different types of evidence which support the theory of evolution. Students will have to visit three specific web sites and view a You Tube video. Students will be assessed by creating a podcast and clearly explaining three pieces of evidence that support evolution. Students also have to create a screencast to reference the sources they used for their podcast. I thought the Voicethread website was extremely easy to use and was very cool technology. I think that the students will be extremely engaged because they get to record their own voice and take some ownership in their work. It really does eliminate a lot of cheating opportunities for the students. :)
