April 20th

Phew, the WebQuest is complete! It was a lot of work but I am pleased at the outcome. Of course there are things I would change for the next time, but over all it went well. I think the hardest things were that the implementation time came as my school was going on spring break. I hoped to finish before break, but we actually finished today. It was a bit hairy to get done.

I could have used another couple of days to really finish this up with the students.

It was also a bit difficult because I am not a classroom teacher, so I did not have the relationship with the students that would have helped move through the project.

All in all, it went well.

I have learned a great deal in this course and the end is coming soon. One big paper left. The time seems to fly by!

April 5th

We are getting closer to the end of the semester and the pace is picking up. In a way this class goes well with my other class (Professional Development) as I have done professional development on technology integration previously but as a technology director I am not in a classroom every day. As I work through developing my WebQuest it takes me back to the training I have done recently, and I am now tweeking it some to make it more realistic.

My school goes on spring break beginning Thursday and I am hoping to implement my WebQuest tomorrow if I am done. If not, I will have to wait until the week of April 20th. I am also out of town for spring break so am feeling some pressure to get ahead in my work this week. Otherwise I will be working over break :(.
