Webquest

       I honestly had not heard of a Webquest before my investigation of the topic. After finding good and bad examples of different Webquests, I realize what to look for when trying to find a useful page. I do believe that Webquests are a great alternative to usage of worksheets.Webquests are designed to visually stimulate and intrigue viewers and as a result, students are more likely to get involved. Students with special educational needs (ex. students with ADHD) will most likely also become involved since they are allowed  to work hands-on through Webquest(s).  I believe that the ability to investigate the web page promotes students to explore and acquire problem solving skills.
         I enjoyed the activity where we were to go through examples of different Webquests and find which ones were the best and worse options. I felt like this activity promoted us to use the characteristices from the reading to determine which options fit the requirements. Now that I am familiar with Webquests, I plan to use them in my future classroom to promote student learning.
