Day Nineteen- March 30

Today in class we viewed WebQuests and evaluating them according to the role that we played. There were 4 roles: the efficiency expert, the affiliator, the altitudinist, and the technophile. My specific role was the technophile. So, my job was to view the websites and see which ones made the most use of technology. So, pretty much, if the site had bright colors, pictures, pictures with animation, links to other sites, etc. then it was a good site in my particular role. My favorite site was the Grow School Greens one because it used picture animation in almost every picture on the site. It also used the color green which happens to be my favorite color, so it already had the advantage before I started evaluating! The best standard in the ISTE NET for Students is definitely 3 (Research and Information Fluency) B (communicate information and ideas effectively to multiple audiences using a variety of media and formats) in this particular activity. I say this because these students had to create these sits using a variety of medias and formats and they were viewed by our class.
