Webquest Reflection

What: This week we learned more about webquests, the technical side. We learned how to create licenses, more about tools on power point, and were able to ask questions and have them answered. We were also able to work in our groups and got a lot done on our webquests. It was great to be able to learn more about them, but to also be able to work on them as well.

So what: Webquests are great tools that are availble for teachers to have their students use. There are many different types and different levels. They are also great to create for your own class. They are great ways to get students to do assignments and learn while using technology. It can help them become more familiar with technology.

Now what: As we are creating the webquests, I am learning about not only my content, but also about technology. I hope to continue using webquests and continue creating them for my future classrooms. They are great tools that I had never used in my high school but hope to use them wherever I teach.

Video Reflection:
The video was confusing at first. I did not know what to expect, but as it went on, I realized the point and importance of it. Cellphones, and other form of technology, can help educate children in countries where education is not prevalent. It is something that may have only been used for advertising, but I feel that it is something that can be done, and hopefully one day it will be. If people truly understood the use and power of technology, then perhaps many more children would benefit from it and become more educated.
