What is this?

This is a webquest designed by my classmate and me. We logged in Questgarden as a member of University of Warwick on ICT class and creat our own webquest. This is the first time we creat a webquest. We  are not so good at creating webquest as those experienced English teachers, but it is worth a try, we enjoyed it.

Why is the content good for language learning?

• The topic of the webquest is interesting and learners can choose any cartoon characters they like.
• The task is motivating in terms of  improving learners' speaking and listening abilities.
• Learners will have a good opportunity to develop their negociation and communication skills during the process of preparing the task.
• The instruction and process of the task is clear and well-arranged which enables learners to do the task easily both on class and after class.
• The webquest contains a lot of useful online resourses and other relevant webquests. Learners can refer to the website and links.

• Not only will learners develop their language skills, but also increase their creativity and imagination.

Limitation

How might you use it in a language teaching context?

• Teacher asks students to follow the process to do the task.
• Step one and two can be done after class. And step 3 should be shown on class.
