1.+Introduction

Imagine that you and a team of learners are presented with the task of describing an elephant. You are each blindfolded and guided to an elephant. Each of you touches a different part of the animal. Based upon what each of you explored, each will have a different point of view about elephants.

Which is the truth? When we study complex topics, there is usually much more to a topic than we learn after a quick exploration.

In the following WebQuest, you will use the power of teamwork to learn all about Global Warming and its impact on our planet. Each person on your team will become an expert on some aspect of Global Warming and then you will come together at the end to share and get a better understanding of the topic as a whole. You and your team will also create a Gloster on Global Warming and present it to the class.

Please feel free to consult with your teammates and recommend site sections or pages that you may come across that may be helpful to others on your team. You will receive an individual project grade as well as a group grade based on your ability to collaborate with your team.
