Scavenger Hunt:  

During the final WEEK of class, all students will participate in an 90 minute scavenger hunt on the Internet to demonstrate their searching and researching skills. The students may use their texts and notes during the competition. The Scavenger Hunt for Previous Terms may be found at:
http://www.fscj.me/P4Backup/cgs1555/scavhuntS03.html

Each student will submit at least three and no more than five questions toward the hunt with answers and the URL where the answer may be found, two weeks before the end of the term. The answer must be available on the Internet. The instructor will suggest at least 10 questions so that there are 50-60 total questions.

I

f the student submits his/her questions via an email to the instructor (with cc’s the instructor’s secondary email site), then the student has completed successfully three to five of the twenty five question minimum requirement. The student will not have to attempt his/her own questions during the hunt. The email must include:

1. The Question
2. The answer
3. The URL where the answer is found.

If no one answers a student’s question, then the student earns a bonus point (as though they answered a question correctly).

The URL for the hunt will not be posted until the beginning of the last week of class for the eLearning Class and either on the last day of a regular campus class or the scheduled final exam day for that class. Links to the previous hunts are available on the instructor’s web site:
