Today in EDU3040 we learned about WebQuests. A WebQuest is an inquiry-oriented activity in which some or all of the information that learners interact with comes from resources on the Internet. This assignment can be done separately or as a collaborative effort. The students start out with a clearly outlined set of tasks to complete. This is my first attempt at making a WebQuest and I'm really enjoying it! I found out that a WebQuest is a good way to help children learn in a hands-on, non-traditional way. By non-traditional I mean the pencil and paper, old-school way of learning.
Remember those days in school when you thought the day would never end? Well, this is a way to make the day absolutely fly for those children! WebQuests are a wonderful way to bring technology into teaching.
Our class time was spent in the computer lab looking at other WebQuests to get ideas of what we were up against in the class assignment. Our assignment is to make our very own WebQuest for the next class which will be held on Tuesday, September 7 ~ and I can't wait!
P.S. I was not sorry that the quizzes are over!!!!!
