What Killed the Dinosaurs? A WebQuest for Biology (continued)
Rubric:
Conclusion
Congratulations, you have completed the webquest, and most importantly, you have all come back in one piece! I hope that you
learned a lot of new and important information, and I want to encourage you to do more research on your own. Future research
might include, did the dinosaurs die suddenly, as we are usually led to believe? You could also research other mass extinctions, as
there have been 4 others. Last, some scientists believe that we are on the verge of a 6th major extinction, and this time mankind
may be the culprit. Whatever you choose, you can always research evidence to discover the truth about claims that you may hear.
