Week Five ,Webquests week
“Never doubt that a small group of committed people can change the
world. Indeed it is the only thing that ever has.”—Margaret Mead

This week  was so busy but  it was full of  useful  tasks. It  has  three  important activities  ; Project -based learning ; assessments and Webquests . I explored and compared several PBLs and learnt how they develop the ideas of inquiry , search and collaboration , and require students to work in teams . I also gained a clear idea about kinds of Webquests and how to plan a "Pencil-paper" Webquest. Webquests are based on the ideas of inquiry and constructivism. Webquests also incorporate cooperative and collaborative learning, since students work on projects in groups. We can use  it to promote interaction for meaningful and authentic purposes and to increase learner  motivation.
