Last week, I introduced the idea to my business class, talked to them about the fact that Ss learn better when they become more independent and when they help each other to learn. Then, we explored together the web page explaining to them what they are supposed to do, going briefly through the resources I provided. I gave them the URL to read the web quest more carefully at home and decide how they would accomplish the task. Here are their first impression. One of them who works as an engineer in a telecommunication company said:" This is professional and we don't have time to do such thing". Others just remained silent as if they are shocked but others were really excited about the idea. To over come the two obstacles of lack of time to study outside the class and their unfamiliarity of the idea I am planning to do further exploration to the webquest next lesson which is tomorrow and I am going to put it as a part of their course assessment. I also see other webquest generators to make sure that I am using the most appropriate one. I hope this works. Let's wait and see.
