=Teachers guide to wiki-webquest for Shaping the Modern World=

This web quest is designed so that the students can work on it even when they are at home, without the aid of the classroom teacher. All the instructions are contained within the web quest. Though students may benefit from the teacher's guidance in regards to asking historical questions and using inductive reasoning to turn implications into conclusions, for example the student might ask 'Sir I don't know how my parents income affects history', you may prompt them by asking things like 'have you been over seas before? if so, did it change your world view? Your parents paid for this I assume?'

Web Quest and the Quality Teaching Framework
The web quest is designed to interact with the three requisites of the Quality Teaching Framework. The topics are chosen on the basis of significance, nothing could be more significant than the students own personal history, they should not need prompting to take interest in this. The quality of the learning environment is very different in this sense because the students learning environment here is the internet, this is where the teachers research in resources will impact on the quality for he learning environment - the better the sources, the better the learning. The students will be the active agents in creating their own intellectual quality; if they participate fully in the research and can synthesise their learning over the three lessons 'Who Do You Think You Are?, 'Prove it', and 'So what?' they will be working within the apex of Blooms Taxonomy.
