"Would Socrates approve of WebQuests?"

I absolutely feel that Socrates would approve of teaching using WebQuests. Like the article said Socrates was a universal teacher. He did not like to teach inside the classroom, and he taught to anyone that was willing to learn. The internet is a great way to retrieve knowledge that was not availiable a few years ago. Anything that you want to know you just type it in and its at your fingertips. Socrates would have a hay day with teaching strategies such as a WebQuest. WebQuest allow you guide a student through learning online. It has the task needed to be done and gives links to sites that would be helpful in completeing the task.

  1. Yes Teya! I especially like how your WebQuest demonstrates how learning doesn't just take place in the classroom but also on the dance floor!
