The following are links to examples of home pages that students completed as part of their course work during the last few years. There is no embedded link from these sites back to the Teacher Educator Page and if you visit any of these pages (and I certainly suggest you do), you will need to use your browser's navigational tool to get back to this web site. Please also note that some pages are based on the WebQuest design as developed by Bernie Dodge, while others are not. 

You can see some of the better work students have done in the following courses, but please note modifications to the assignments may have been made and if you are a student check the syllabus for current expectations. They might be different from what you see in the example.
