Topic hotlistTopic hotlist Basic strategy:
Create a web page containing links to useful, interesting or peculiar sites on a particular topic
Organise into categories or sub-topics Variation: Create a “scrapbook” of web-based multimedia content
Use when: You (the teacher) are new to the Web You have limited preparation time You want to save students surf/search time You want to add Web resources to supplement a paper-based curriculum

Knowledge huntKnowledge hunt Basic strategy:
Gather 10 - 15 links to web-based resources Pose one key question for each resource Include an overarching or culminating "Big Question" to encourage knowledge synthesis
Use when: Students need to acquire a specific body of knowledge
Critical thinking is either not a goal is covered using other activities
Web-based resources are more current or reliable than traditional resources

Subject samplerSubject sampler Basic strategy:
Present learners with 5-6 intriguing web sites organised around a main topic (that contain something interesting to do, read or see)
Ask students to respond to the web sites and their content/activities from a personal perspective, e.g.:
Their opinions/personal stances on the topic Personal interpretations of artwork Comparisons to personal experiences
Use when: You want students to feel connected to the topic You want to motivate students to explore the topic further Time is limited and you have a small number of great sites to share
You or your students are new to the Web

Insight reflectorInsight reflector Basic strategy:
Gather pages that you feel will perturb learners in such a way as to create a positive dissonance
Provide a reflective writing assignment requiring the students to “mull things over” and think about the topic in different ways
Use when: Creative thinking is more important than a uniform response
The subject matter benefits from being viewed through new perspectives
You want students to engage their emotions and minds in the topic
Reflection / reflective writing is a course objective

Concept builderConcept builder Basic strategy:
Provide links to an array of web-based resources that illustrate a concept, and allow them to construct the concept for themselves
Refine and consolidate concepts, e.g. through class/group discussion and debriefing
Use when: A simple definition is too abstract (“grey areas”) Examples of the concept are available on the Web At least a few critical attributes of the concept are easily perceived
You want to engage students in conceptualization (a form of higher-level thinking)

WebQuestWebQuest Basic strategy:
Devise an an inquiry activity that presents students with a central question or problem and related task
Web-based and other resources provide grist from which students construct meaning
The learning process is supported by prompting / scaffolds to promote higher-order thinking
End products of are often put out to the world for some type of real feedback
Use when: You want students to tackle big, complex or grey questions Students could benefit from cooperative learning The subject warrants a deeper understanding Students would benefit from a more authentic, real-world learning experience (PBL)
