TOOLS: WEBQUEST

WHAT IS A WEBQUEST?


"A WebQuest is an inquiry-oriented activity in which some or all of the information that learners interact with comes from resources on the internet" (Dodge, 1995)


Typically webquests have 7 steps:

1. Introduction: to orient the student on what the task will be about and motivate him/her. 
2. Task: explain explicitly what the student is going to be required to do. 
3. Process: steps that the students will follow. Include online webpages.
4. Evaluation: how this activity is going to be evaluated.
5. Conclusion: sum up the process and the achievements. 
6. Didactic Orientations: the level and subject for what the webquest is adressed.
7. Contact: the creator's contact details.

INTERESTING BLOG TO IMPROVE ENGLISH

Today I found this blog that could be interesting not only for teachers, but also for students in Bachiller, since it is a blog to improve the mistakes that are usually made in English.


The name of the blog is called: habla mejor inglés.com 

http://www.hablamejoringles.com/

For example, this entry would be very useful for speaking or writing skills, since sometimes we don't know whether we should use the verb "make" or "do":
