This week I learned how to create a WebQuest. I learned a WebQuest is an online lesson plan of sorts that allow the students to participate online and conduct a project/assignment with other students and/or individually. It is a very useful tool to promote higher level learning, which we need more in this area, and use of technology and the web.
I followed the directions and "advice" on the quest garden and it was very helpful. It would be easy to implement this in my classroom with this great tutorial.
The amount of time devoted to this project was my only big challenge and I'm sure that goes for most of us. I will say it was good to be warned of this time consuming project and I appreciate Dr. Goldberg's advice to not wait to complete the WebQuest.
I do not foresee this being a major problem/challenge for future use because as Dr. Goldberg stated and the reading said, the next ones go faster. Also, I look forward to seeing others ideas for WebQuests.
