Required Reading #2

The Learning Power of WebQuests – This article was quite helpful in understanding a true definition of a WebQuest. They are much more involved than I originally thought and will require quite a bit of thought and research to create one. I thought the two question litmus test that was given is quite helpful. First, can the answer be copied and pasted and second do students have to make something new out of what was learned? I find this really difficult for a math WebQuest. The first question is not that difficult but the second one is more complicated. The example of students planning a trip I thought would be a good WebQuest is on the list of what a WebQuest is not. So now I am rethinking our project.
