Evaluation What skills does a teacher need in order to pull this lesson off? Is it easy enough for
a novice teacher? Does it require some experience with directing debates or role
Teacher Script plays, for example?
Conclusion If you're designing for a one-computer classroom or for pre-readers and are
creating a facilitated WebQuest in which the teacher or an aide controls the
computer and guides discussion, you can link from here to the Teacher Script page
which would contain a printable script for the facilitator to follow.
