Hello, everyone! It has been a while since my last entry, but I had my partial exams during this week, so I didn’t have a lot of time to post an entry. I must say that I’m exhausted since I had to do not only exams, but also partial projects that certain professors left until the end. Anyways, I have just finished my Math project as I had already told you, but I would like to talk about certain issues or just give a reflection about the whole project, which I found very interesting.
Thanks to the WebQuest, I learned many things about Forensic Science. However, there is one thing I learned the most, which is that details and Math are always together. Through the Webquest I learned that in order to solve the case, I had to consider every single detail, especially, when I was using Math because if I didn’t have the correct temperature, I wouldn’t get all the operations correctly. Therefore, when you are trying to solve any mathematical problem, you need to consider the most minimum aspect that is presented to you in order to get the correct answer, and in this case, find the time of death and the guilty person.
I really liked all the things this WebQuest taught me that I would really like it to be used in other subjects. You may ask, why? Well, the thing is that through the WebQuest a student doesn’t only learn just how to apply the knowledge he or she learned during class, but also he or she learns more things about other subjects and some extra information that he or she may not know and that will allow him or her to know more about the applications of technology and/or Math in a specific topic, just like what happened with this WebQuest.
When I began the project, I thought everything was perfect and that the project didn’t need anything to be corrected, but now, I think that the only thing that was wrong in the project was the duration of the video because when I was watching the videos with my friends, I felt that the stories didn’t have many drama because they had to be very short and if a story doesn’t have too much drama, it isn’t very interesting at all. Therefore, the teacher should let the students make it of 15 minutes since 10 minutes doesn’t allow them to create a very good and entertaining story. Out of this, everything else is just perfect.
In conclusion, the project and the WebQuest were great because they allowed me to learn more things about Forensic Science and to apply Math in a real life situation. I wish the WebQuest would be used in other subjects since it turned out to be very interesting.
Well, looks like this is it for today since I’m pretty tired from the conferences and activities I had today at school and which were pretty funny and interesting. I really had a good time and learned a lot of things not only about Maseca, but also about presentation and myself. See you! Have a nice weekend!
