Our Winners of the Web-Quest
Between November 25 and December 2 college students and teaching staff tried out their skills and knowledge solving three tasks of the web quest called “Influential Contemporaries” created by Iryna Koshynska, English Teacher. There are a couple of objectives to such an inquiry-based activity. Such as promoting “transformative” learning outcomes, accomplished through reading, analysis, and synthesis of online resources; boosting students’ problem-solving and decision-making skills; inspiring students to use the Internet responsibly; encouraging students to analyze a variety of resources while using creativity and critical-thinking skills; and inspiring students to be responsible for their learning.
