WebQuest
I found the WebQuest assignment to be beneficial to me as a future teacher because I feel like it is a great alternative to the worksheet/handout. It allows for more interaction on the web as well as promotes interaction with the assignment outside of the classroom because of the ease of access. I also feel like it is easily update able for me as the teacher. It can always remain a work in progress. Also, the WebQuest has a good advantages for educouter or leaener:
1- Webquests offer an organized approach to using the web. Students have resources at their fingertips and make the best use of time. I believe
there is nothing worse than using precious class and lab time to send a student looking for websites on a topic.
2- easy for use it.
3- Allow students to work at their own pace, either individually or in teams.
4-Teach students to be creative researchers rather than simply information surfers.
