Web Quest


1)Talk about the project concept and/ or how you chose the topic for this project.
*The title of our Web Quest project is Nutrition: Are you what you eat? With a partner, Rayray and I decided to integrate the topics health and science, mainly the difference between healthy and unhealthy foods.

 2) Why did you choose this topic? What is the learning outcome or purpose of your Web Quest? *It is important to know the difference between healthy and unhealthy foods because it is essential to practice healthy living. There are some students who don’t practice healthy eating habits at home and that is why it is important to model healthy habits at school. At the end of this lesson, students should be able to tell the difference between healthy and unhealthy foods.

 3) In what way will this Web Quest improve your students learning?
*Web quest will improve student learning because its hand’s on and interactive! Integrating technology into a lesson plan is a great strategy, especially today since technology has made a big impact on student learning. Using Web Quest students are able to share their information with the world and view other students projects as well. The best part about Web Quest is the access of allowing to videos, links, and other resources.  

4) What did you think was the most important lesson you learned from this activity?
*From this assignment, I learned the importance of technology in the classroom. If technology is being used appropriately in the classroom, students will demonstrate interest in participating in the learning process, whereas teaching in the traditional classroom ways. The Zunal Web Quest is the perfect recommended resource to maximize student learning.

 5) What did you like or dislike about the software or web-based online tool you used?
*So far, there is nothing I dislike about the Zunal Web Quest software, but I do like the idea of the accessibility to other people’s work. To add, it is free and interactive!

 6) What would you do differently next time you do this activity and/or use this tool?
* I would use more resources, besides the Google and you tube. I would also add more picture and fun facts about my topic.
