Webquests

Today in our technology class we learned about webquests. I think the concept of a webquest for kids is a really great idea. I love incorporating technology into the classroom. I like the idea of doing a webquest based on a problem or project. I'm not really sure what I want to do my webquest on, but I'm thinking I want to do it on nutrition or a balanced diet. I don't know exactly what I'll have the kids do, but I think this could be really interesting for the students and something that could really apply to their lives. I also might add an exercise twist to it, and challenge them to exercise as they eat healthy. I just think it's really important for kids to learn how to eat healthy when they're young, so they'll hopefully do it for the rest of their lives. I think a webquest could be a different and fun way for students to learn subjects than just presenting it in the classroom. I hope I can create one that is interesting enough that the students will want to use it to learn.
