This week we only had one project. That was to create a webquest. A webquest is an easy website to set up that creates a learning experience that uses both the internet and in class participation. I think this can be very useful since almost all schools will have internet access when I enter the classroom as an educator. Webquests will provide fun lessons that will help keep the students involved in learning without dreading all the upcoming lessons.
Webquests use both community communications and critical thinking and problem solving. Both of those are ISTE standards that students must know in order to become a successful student in the 21st century.
Dane, I also agree that webquest can be useful in the classroom. I think that it is a fun and innovative way to teach a lesson to students. These days it is so easy to loose students' attention, but I think webquests put a new spin on learning by making it fun!
