Background and References:
Begin gathering resources (see section on webquest to help) to be
placed in your portfolio, resources that you will use to develop your character
and be used in the video.
Remember, all resources are to be internet related and that you
must have the required about in accordance to the webquest assignment.
Write the background information that you find along with the
proper APA reference (see handout and/or “citation machine webpage” on the
webquest).
A final copy of your references need to be doubled spaced (DS) and
in alphabetical order (either written or typed) and on a separate sheet of
paper to be placed in your portfolio.
Script Outline:
Begin drawing out an outline of what you and/or your group will be
doing and saying on the video based on the research and the webquest storyline.
Remember, this is only a basic outline or script to give you and
your group direction.
