Class Nine- Using the Web for Teaching and Learning

Class Nine- Using the Web for Teaching and Learning
Tonight was a short night; we had the Chapter 8 trio share and learned about web quests. They were really interesting, but I don’t know how often I would actually use them in class. As a teacher I think I’ll have to be kind of hesitant on assigning computer work for my students. Not every student has a computer at home, or if they do, they might not have access to the internet. Not all schools have sufficient computer labs as well, so some students may have to go to a local library. I don’t think this is fair to the student to make them go out of their way to do homework like this. Every once and a while, I think it would be fine, but to do it on a regular basis is not fair.
