WebQuest Reflection

The webquest was too much work, but it was a lot of fun. I really liked the group I had to work with; they are all good and dependable. I really like doing the activity where we looked at the 4 different webquests. This gave a great introduction of they are and what they should do. It was also very helpful to use them as patterns. I also liked the way we each took a different view and then analyzed the webquests according to that view and then shared it with each other. I liked how we used these different viewpoints to rate the webquests.
I did think that it would be much harder to build the webquest than what it was. Our group did a really good job of splitting up the work and finding what we needed and then bringing it all back together again. We all really liked how we could be researching 4 different things and sharing what we found immediately using Google Docs. That was a great tool in getting this done quickly and efficiently. My group really was great and we all contributed in several ways, making this assignment much easier than I thought it would be.
I really liked how our webquest turned out. With each of us combining our strengths and ideas, I think we came up with a great project; much better than I could have done on my own. I am using this as part of my technology-rich lesson plan. When we were trying to decide on a topic, nobody offered any so I piped up and gave this idea so I could use it. What foresight.
The only thing that I did not like was I felt very lost in the beginning of the project, even with the webquest on webquests activity. I really just do not have enough schema on technology. I have much more now than I did, in case you were worried that I have not learned anything. Once I began to get it, the project flowed really smoothly for me. I already mentioned several things that I liked such as my group, the way it turned out, and the way you introduced the project.
