There are many things we can not change at all, like our height or eyes. But you can change bad habits and replace them with good habits. Bad habits are like Bugs in the System that mess up your school life! Not everyone has the same bad habits. Some students skip breakfast, eat junk food or stay up late to watch TV. Were you ever tired and hungry at school? On days when it’s harder to get along with people, sometimes bad habits are the cause. The Task Follow the Scientific Method experiment in this WebQuest to beat off those nasty bugs! Click on this site to see how other students conduct an Oreo Cookie Experiment. You will decide on a mean, old, bad habit that messes up your school life. The Scientific Method gets rid of bad habits and replaces them with good habits! Of course, you’re going to want to tell everyone the great news. Write a report and make a graph so we all can celebrate with you. You’ll use the Internet to look up science concepts to make sure your experiment works. What relationship is there between bad habits and a poor sense of well-being (health)? How do they affect your school life? How do you react when people mention your bad habit to you? How do your conclusions compare with your classmates? By completing this WebQuest, you become a scientist: Gain knowledge in the Scientific Method and practice skills Plan and conduct an experiment as an individual Compute data on variables Write a report on your experiment Create a graph Use the Jigsaw technique to problem-solve in groups Use Peer Review to jury projects and QA presentations Use Internet technology as a tool for research Use a Rubric to evaluate The Process As a future s
