                                     Module 6- Project Approaches  to Learning with ICT

 This module was  a bit  challenging for me. There was  a lot to be  done and also a lot of  reading.   Sometimes  I felt  like "throwing in  the  towel" but this proverb always   helps me through my rough patches, "hard work brings  success". The  activities  were coming in very  quickly and it  seemed as if   I  wasn't  going to complete  the  module  however I am proud to  say I  made it . I  am deeply grateful for  the support from my tutor Deb and  for  the positive criticisms from my  assessor. They have  helped me  to do  better.  I have  truly learnt  a lot.  The   web quest is the activity  I liked  best in this module .  Although it  was   very difficult  for  me  to complete the  support I got  made it all  easier.
Activity- Students  Support  Documents

 At first  this  activity seemed daunting.  I  didn't know  where to commence but after receiving  some  support  from   Deb the  activity  became very  straightforward. I was  then able to complete  three documents  for my  web quest. I  created  a  Tip sheet, an Observation sheet and a  fact sheet.
Here are  links to the  documents:

Activity 9 - Creating  Roles

 The readings on the website helped  me  to create suitable   roles  to  guide my students  while  working on  a  web quest. In my view roles  are what would help  for  a  smooth transition while working on  any  task. When students  know  what is  expected  of them  they  will work  really hard  to make  sure  they  are  successful.
 Activity 8 - Web quest Template

 Amidst  the challenges I  really enjoyed  working on the template  for  my web quest. The most challenging part  for me   was  to   decide  on a topic   that would have been appropriate to complete the quest. I was   able to complete  the task and  felt  very proud of  it. The  examples  on the website guided  me  as to  what was  suppose to be done  .
