web quest for kit

the web quest seems very interesting but yet simple. i can see that being used in the classroom to enhance the learning process. I think I'm gonna place my kit in a web quest instead which might mean a bit more work after i thought i was done but hey... nothing comes easy

REFLECTION

I am not one who would be considered ICT enabled however since being a part of this technology class, I have become such an individual. I was not very found of having to take this technology class, mostly because this course carried no credits and seemed like a waste of my time. In addition, while I knew that ICTS' in the classroom would be an effective teaching/learning tool, iI was not all for the idea. But here I am ready to return to the classroom and willing to put into action all that I was taught and all that I learnt. It was not always easy but many factors contributed to my success in various new areas.

The atmosphere in the classroom was very relaxed and comfortable and as a result I sometimes found myself lost; I was either asleep or dreaming. The hands-on activities which required us to reproduce what we learnt helped in many ways to bring me into perspective. It was as difficult as it was fun at times trying to ensure that whatever project I was working on reflected my learning and Mr. Emmanuel's teaching.

I am happy that I was able to do this course. It certainly taught me a lot. I look forward to using it not only in the classroom but in other areas as well as teaching others what I learnt.

Big Thank you goes out to Mr. Emmanuel for his patience in teaching. You certainly made it worth the effort, although I did "try" to make it difficult; lol!!!. Lo paso bombo! Thank you Mr. Emmanuel.
