This week we had to create a Webquest. I thought that Webquest, while it had some
great ideas, the lessons themselves still needed work. In order to use Webquest, one must already
know basic knowledge of how to use a computer.
The Webquest website is pretty self-explanatory and is easy to
navigate. When I teach, I would probably
use Webquest to help me come up with ideas for a lesson plan. I would however expand on the lesson that is
given. I found some of the lessons on
Webquest to be simple and not so creative.
The lessons can be taken a step further and can be more challenging for
the kids. I would also put different
options for different children in my lessons.
On Webquest, there was not differentiation.
The
Webquest that I chose falls under the category of Creativity and Innovation For
Students and can be standard A- Apply existing knowledge to generate new ideas,
products, or processes.
In my
student teaching classroom, we do not use Webquest. My teachers often use BrainPop! but I have
never seen Webquest. I will definitely
point it out to them though and have them judge for themselves what they think
of it!
