Here are the three screen cast presentations I am commenting on:

“FrebQuest” (Freb)

My first reaction to this webquest was that Freb has the perfect voice for this!  She could do voice-overs.  It is engaging to listen to and sounds like a professional talking.  The websites had engaging videos with lyrics to also read.  Students will find using Glogster interesting and exciting to work on.

“Ms. M and M’s Periodic Table Webquest”  (Tiffany)

I liked the introduction page.  It hooks the students in with a funny picture, joke and drawing.  Crating an advertisement or birth announcement is a really good idea.  I remember having to just fill out a worksheet when I was learning about elements and wish I had had a project like this.  The birth announcement gives something for students to relate each piece of information to.  I also liked that there were things for students to do who finish early. 

“Story2Tell”  (Dawn)

I liked that there were multiple examples for students to look at and refer back to while working on their own story.  The steps seemed to be written out clearly as well.  Now that we’ve had to do similar projects, we can relate to how the students may feel about our own assignments!
