Chapter 6 Focus Question 6

The question provides is "How might educational websites provide interactive and engaging learning experiences for students?"

This question seems a bit repetitive since we have already done project 1, and it fits in great with project 3 we are currently working on. Just like project 1, a website can give the student an Independence within the work they are doing, letting them work on their own, at their pace, while still completing assignments and learning the material. It gives them a new way to interact with the material. Plus through websites students can engage one and other by email, instant message, and now with skype and face time they can video chat even. All of these things provide a new way to learn and discuss a topic which can be fun and in a way even entertainment for a student. Just like project 3 is now showing us, we can get more than one subject within a website providing a multi tooled website, giving students another way to connect to subjects. Since one website can connect to math, social studies, and English for example, a student with a strength in one area could apply their strength to their weakness because the website is set up in a way that with the material they are able to make a connection. Websites provide a new and potentially powerful tool for student learning.
