Music Webquest

One webquest that I found interesting and useful in the music classroom is the "Z-Box Music Co Webquest" by Jane Tummons at Truman Elementary. The purpose of the quest is for students to learn about different cultures of music and dance, specifically from Africa, Mexico, and China.

Pros:
The quest engages the students by encouraging them that they alone can help the Z-box Music Company, which gives the students a sense of importance and makes them want to engage in the webquest. It specifically identifies the elements of the task and also provides the resources the students need to complete the task. The graphics are engaging also and help relay the point of the task.

Cons:
There is no evaluation or conclusion, as the webquest is for younger students, more so for fun or a reward than for a grade.
