Bernie Dodge, padre de las WebQuests, ha estado en Brasil impartiendo un seminario, detalles sobre su estancia podemos leer en el blog de Bernie. De ello me entero a través del Blog de Barbara Dieu en el que podemos encontrar diversos artículos al respecto.
Cómo ya comenté el pasado mes de Marzo en el artículo El secreto de Bernie Dodge pronto saldrá a la luz un programa para elaborar WebQuests que será presentado el 29 de Junio en Philadelfia NECC conference .
Barbara Dieu nos adelanta algunos detalles:

This new tool facilitates the uploading process for teachers who are not familiar with FTP. It provides teachers with template pages they can write their webquests into, save and edit. An embedded explanation on each page scaffolds this process step by step.

What I really enjoyed here are the collaborative possibilities:

  • comments can be added to existing webquests or in development
  • a webquest in the database can be imported, transformed and adapted it to the teachers’ own needs and context (the tool acknowledges the original authorship and further modifications)
  • webquests can be exported to other locations
  • webquests may be locked out from the general public while in pilot mode and be released later on.

Estaremos muy atentos a este evento.
