WebQuest March 14

So What?

This week we finished our webquest and it was so much fun! Our team really enjoyed doing this project together. I will definitely be doing one of these in my classroom.

So What?

As a future educator I am so excited about these webquests. It will be a fun for my students to use. It will also be beneficial for me to teach other teachers to use it in their classroom. I have talked to many educators about webquests and they have no idea what they were. I showed one teacher and he wanted to use it in his classroom. Which, was very suprisingly to me because most teachers like to stick in their ways, but he wanted to improve his technology.

As a colleague its going to be so easy to share these assignments with each other. I know that the girls in my content area would be easily wanting to exchange webquests with each other. This will be an easy way to share the different ideas that we come up with. Plus, I like these homework assignments because using technology will be better then using and wasting sheets of paper for worksheets. Technology is making the world a lot more greener. It does take a lot of time to make webquests so sharing them will be a lot easier.

Now What?

My future classroom is going to be filled with webquests assignments. This is not only going to improve my students working with technology, but it will be a fun activity at the same time. Most students have never done webquests so it is a new thing that will be exciting for them. This will be a new future for them that they have never seen. It's going to be so wonderful for my students to experience something new.

Now I am going to be making more an more webquests. I want to have a webquest for each standard in my curriculum. I have one on mental disorders, and now I want to make one on nutrition, safety, diseases, self esteem, violence, and drugs. Having one for each unit, will be very beneficial. I can even use webquests for a review for a test. Instead of using time in class for reviews I can easily do it on a webquest. Having webquests is going to be the best thing that has ever happened to my future classroom. The future is changing with technology and its because of this great instrucitonal media class that is so beneficial. I want to be that teacher that everyone looks to for help in technology.
