Research Skills Web Quest

For this assignment please assume the role of a committee member for a new school. The main decision before you right now is the career exploration class. This class will be available to all juniors and seniors, but will only last one quarter. With such a limited amount of time there is no way the instructors can cover all careers.

Therefore, it has been decided that they will only discuss five major careers. Naturally, you want the course to address careers in which you are personally interested. You must find information about these careers and prepare your presentation to the rest of the committee. You will present all five of the careers you research, but clearly mark which is your favorite. The plan is that the committee will select one career choice from each member's five options to be used for the course.

Your presentation must include the names of the careers and a brief summary of each. In additon to information on how to find the source of your information again, this includes: page title, author, title, date updated, and date accessed. The head of the committee has created this template (click on the image below and save to your local computer) and would like all presentations turned in to her using it. This completed template will need to be turned in with your final findings.
