Webquest

I've been working on my Webquest this week. I have also helped the third-grade students build a Power Point presentation that coincides with the Webquest. I am simply amazed at how much these third-graders know. They can whip up a presentation in a matter of minutes. They know all the little features, effects, bells, and whistles. I've actually found myself taking notes on things they do!!! It's a little odd watching them create a presentation in minutes and at the same time they're asking me how to spell "access" and "carry".

Some of the parents haven't been using the Webquest that I set up. Which one parent soon found out was not such a good idea. Her daughter did a Google search for "Bangladesh" and the second search that popped up was "Bangladesh Call Girl" (yikes!). After that, she became very interested in the links I had provided on the Webquest!

This has been a very interesting journey over the past three weeks. I've really gained a lot of insight into the preparations these teachers go through when it comes to big projects like this! I've also been able to draw on what I've learned in the few classes I've taken thus far at KSU; especially my "Designing Visuals" class (which, by the way, I loathed!!!).

I think once I get this Webquest built, the teachers will ask for my help with more! I'm excited!
