The article about webquests was very informative. I like the idea of getting students more involved in their education. Some positive benefits to students from completing webquests are:
- knowledge acquisition & integration
- ability to transform knowledge and create a product using that information
- development of higher level thinking skills such as analysis and synthesis
- information retention
A webquest usually contains the following elements:- Introduction
- Task
- Sources of Information
- Process
- Guidance
- Conclusion
As I began the web resources project, I was concerned that I would have trouble locating webquests for the objectives I had chosen. I was pleasantly surprised to find so many sites from which to choose. What started out as a daunting task, actually turned out to be enjoyable and very informative.
