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.
