TIOBE & ... Aladdin & Mean Girls?

I'm going to show these pieces today and let the kids think about any parallels they may have with The Importance of Being Earnest that we just finished last week.

Finishing off my UEN class

I've been taking one UEN (Utah Education Network) class every three or four months in order to get a lane change (pay raise) eventually. I just finished my assignment for the latest class I've taken on Webquests. So, here is my first webquest ever.

It's on Victorian England, and I hope to use it with my reading of The Importance of Being Earnest next year.

I have two essential questions connected with the Webquest:

1. Why is the face we show the world different from our real face?
2. Why is it so important to "keep up appearances"?

I hope this will spark some interest with my high school aged students, as keeping up appearances is obviously a very important subject for them.
