Webquest part 3-ok
- 1. TYPE II & III WEBQUEST PART III TIME ZONES & TIMELINE
- 2. Welcome to our Webquest Part III. We measure the day by saying that the sun is at it's highest point at 12 o'clock, midday. Because the earth spins, as it travels around the sun, one half of the earth is in darkness and one half in light, all the time. This brings us to a problem. If it is midday where you are, on the opposite side of the earth, it is dark, so what time is it on the opposite side of the world? We invite you to learn about time zones & time lines.
- 3. Task 1: Read about What are Time Zones By Cindy Grigg and answer the questions in your notebook (you can print and paste in your notebook!). Task 2: Display differences in time zones, use several clocks to show different hours at different places. For example, clock A can show 8 a.m. in Hawaii, Clock B can show 11 a.m. in Los Angles, Clock C can show 7 p.m. in London, etc.) .
- 4. Task 3: Check the following website and take notes. http://www.wisc-online.com/objects/ViewObject.aspx?ID=SOC3702 Task 4. Answer questions on slides 10 to 15. Remember to justify your answers in your notebook using the map. http://www.wisc-online.com/objects/ViewObject.aspx?ID=SOC3702
- 5. A timeline is a way of displaying a list of events in chronological order, sometimes described as a project artifact. It is typically a graphic design showing a long bar labeled with dates alongside itself and (usually) events labeled on points where they would have happened. Task 5. Make a timeline about the time zones history. Research the sites from b-le@rning. Use the links from b- le@rning to build your online timeline.
