Process

Overview

Form into groups of 3 - 4 students. This will be the group you will be working with for the remainder of this webquest.

Each of you will have certain roles to play within the group: Recorder, Presenter, Designer/Researcher and Group Leader. Each of you will have the opportunity to perform each of these roles as you progress the activities.
At the end of this webquest, each of you will have been a:

	Recorder/summariser who writes down the group's decisions pulling together the essential elements of the group's findings.
	Presenter who speaks for the group, presenting your group's final product
	Designer/researcher who gets material for the group and works on the final product
	Group Leader who ensures that all members are contributing to the group's activities and acts as the project manager.

1 Go to the first activity - "Messages" and complete.

Activity 1: Messages

When you have finished your group's task, as a class, discuss these responses and list the 10 most common messages heard each day and 5 messages from the Bible.

Reach a class consensus (read this first for the rules to building consensus) about which of these messages is the most popular. Write these messages on the class noticeboard.

2 Go to the second activity - What is a Prophet?

Activity 2: What is a Prophet?

After each group has decided on their definition, as a class decide the meaning for "Prophet". Write this up on the class noticeboard. Remember to use the rules to building consensus.

3 Go to the third activity - Know Your Prophets in the Hebrew Scriptures and complete.

Activity 3: Know Your Prophets in the Hebrew Scriptures

As you listen to each group's presentations, write up the qualities of a Prophet on the sheet provided. As a class, come to a consensus about these qualities and write them up on the class noticeboard. 

When your group has finished these activities, you will combine with one other group.

construct a board game using the questions each group has made up about their prophets. It could be a game similar to Snakes and Ladders, Jeopardy, Trivial Pursuit or one that this larger group would wish to make.

Once this is completed, swap games with another larger group and "Play their Game"!

4 Go to your fourth activity - Prophets in Australia - in our History and today?

Activity 4 - Prophets in Australia - in our History and today?

Your group will have a group of Australians to research and categorise into leaders, good people, heroes or Prophets.

After researching, your group will present their findings to the class.

Individually hand in your answers the Stimulus and Focus questions.

As a class, come to a consensus about which people are Prophets in Australia today and be prepared to give reasons for your choice.
