Chicago, 1929
"Chicago, 1929" is a webquest for intermediate (or above) students created as a final project within the course: "webquests: a methodology to use the Internet in the classroom", by webquestcat.org. It is based on a collaborative task in which students will learn about 1920's America, Dixiland music and the film "Some like it hot". The final product is a video/audio file in which the students discuss the issues of that period from different points of view, as if it was the intoduction to the upcoming screening of the film in a TV programme called "Top of the Classics". Hope you enjoy it!
