WebQuests are learning environments where students read, analyze, and synthesize information using the Internet. Although WebQuests are not new, they may include other current technologies such as Podcasts, YouTube video, and links to current websites. Social Bookmarking is a way for Internet users to store, organize, share, and search bookmarks of web pages. Social bookmarking connects many contemporary and emerging technologies. Content Area Software or Applications may be appropriate for use in some courses. Examples include simulation software, statistical packages, or database/spreadsheet software.

- 12. S urvey R esults Technology resulted in students communicating with other students and faculty seamlessly and more often. The wiki allowed them to integrate their ideas and, interestingly, facilitated their self perception as a real team working on a group project. I think the wiki is the tool that helps generate the team spirit that faculty yearn when assigning team projects. The students added, deleted and integrated as an authentic team should.... When used (the wiki) on individual projects, the quality of the output was consistently better than when they submit in-class assignment (do not understand the dynamics here) Use of PowerPoint, video; team presentations in which they used clips from YouTube. Specifically, teams of 3 students worked on presentations and were able to be as creative as they chose to be-- incorporating video, film clips, PowerPoint. Students were more in touch with me. I really enjoyed watching the integrating process in their group projects. I also like reviewing their process of improving their individual work by looking at the "recent changes" capability on the wiki. The review of the "discussions" was also interesting. A couple of students used their computers to disengage in class discussion.
