Assignment #5


This assignment was all about how to create a concept map using Inspiration software. We had to create a concept map about the use of Internet in the schools and the risks that are out there for children when they go on-line. As educators, we need to create a safe and caring environment for the students. We also looked at various WebQuests, which I think are an awesome tool for classroom use. The students can work at their own pace and learn to work with technology. It is a great way to integrate technology into other subject assignments, and the assessment technique would be helpful for the teachers grading the work completed. I hope to use WebQuest in my classroom in the future!
