WEBQUESTS / BLOOM'S TAXONOMY

Webquests...

are just one way in which teachers can help. What does it mean?  A "WebQuest" is a Constructivist approach to learning. Students not only collate and organize information they have found on the web, they orient their activities towards a specific goal they've been given, often associated with one or more roles modeled on adult professions.

An example of Webquest is when the teacher propose some hypotesis to the students and they have to create solutions to answer to those situations. That's what I experimented in one class online I had. We can find some different points of view.

AND HOW WEBQUESTS ARE RELATIONATED WITH BLOOM'S TAXONOMY?

Well, Webquests are a useful way to implement Bloom's taxonomy. Because Webquests give students the opportunity to use technology and find information in the internet, this can be wide or specific. Moreover, this type of activity, makes students practice Bloom's Taxonomy Higer Order Thinking skills, which are analyzing, evaluating and creating. Students easily can apply and live what Bloom have proposed in his argument, that's why classes with this type of activities are very completed.

However you decide to work with webquests, you should find that well-chosen and motivating topics, coupled with up-to-date websites and access to the wealth of material on the Internet will provide lively, interesting and learning-rich classes for you and your learners.
