Virtual Classroom

I thought tonight's chat was great! It was a little confusing at first, especially since my whiteboard wasn't working, but it all came together when I left then joined back in. Once the whiteboard was active and I was able to see what Professor Luongo was posting everything made more sense. The chat was especially helpful for me, since I was still a little confused about the Webquest project. Now I feel I understand what I really need to do and what is not necessary for the project. I am excited to try the website that allows you to create your own webquests as Fran suggested. Even though Professor Luongo said Webquests are more of a nineties trend, and I can see that in the style when viewing some of the Webquests, I also think Webquests could be quality educational tools if used properly. I am not yet a teacher, but I am interested to hear if any of the experienced teachers in the class have used any Webquests in their classroom and how effective they felt the was with real students.
