WebQuest

This is one of the most interesting lessons we've been introduced to in ICT2 course.

I admit it, this is the first time I heard about this terminology and I liked the idea to of WebQuest as it motivates the kids to discover new ideas of the lesson on their own.

It's not up to the kids how to get the information, but there are parts of WebQuest to generalize the process of digging to get the information.


I think there are some points to bear in mind regarding WebQuest to get the most benefit of it:

1. How old are the students? It's near to impossible to use WebQuest with the young kids like 7 years old students.
2. What subjects are you planning to apply WebQuest on? A practical lesson? forget it, since it's usable with the facts-based lessons.
3. How often will you use WebQuest? Since this is a time and effort consuming, you can use it a few times.
4. How easy is it to get the information off the internet? This methodology depends mainly on the internet to fill the blanks.

Put these questions/points in your mind and you'll have a fantastic and interesting learning strategy with your students.

This is a new way to learn as I stated above so all I have here isn't related to experiment with it before rather than agreeing with it to a degree.

See you in next reflections on other topics in the course.
