Project based learning is a great way to
encourage students to call upon a large variety of skills to solve a problem.
My partner and I provided one another with knowledge from our own previous experiences
as well as shared resources we discovered during completion of the task. We
used our group sessions to discuss what we wanted to achieve and set goals for
the next time we meet. We used Google documents to keep track of one another, record
our goals and meeting times and as a communication tool. We decided to use a
SMART board lesson as a container for our tasks, Power Director to edit video,
Audacity to record sound and Powerpoint for the construction of the webquest.
Originally I wanted to use conventional means to create the webquest document,
however even WYSISWG HTML editors didn’t allow the freedom of expression and
ease of use I required for my students. Although ITC are important, I felt that
education on HTML was best left to the Computer Labs.
