Week 4: Exploring Websites and Gathering Information

Update: Over the past two weeks we have viewed a Youtube clip, created a concept map, developed a spreadsheet detailing our eating and exercise habits, looked at who or what might influence a healthy lifestyle and reflected on our learning experiences.

For this week your task is to;

Step 1: Search the following websites in order to find relevant information for your final assessment task. You will be working in pairs (allocated assessment pairs) to determine which websites are appropriate for your final product. To do this you and your partner will use the Evaluation Wizard. All you have to do is choose what criteria you want to use in order to make judgements on, and answer questions about a specific website.

Step 2: Post the websites you wish to use to your blog.

Step 3: You and your partner will develop questions for an interview with a local health professional (This will be the school nurse or a member from the community). With permission, both you and your partner will video or sound record this persons responses. You may also wish to create a Voki where these questions/response can be recorded electronically. The choice is up to you but remember that this task will be displayed on your final product.  

Step 4: Post this interview to your blog.

Step 5: Continue working on your final product. Consider all aspects, what are you going to do to make it more engaging? (Youtube clips, Images, Vokis, Music? Please see teacher for assistance when doing this)
