Lessons from the "maker movement": Doing is what matters; openness; give it a go; iterative design; aesthetics matter; mentoring defies ageism; learning is intensely personal; It IS about the technology; ownership -- Are you hooked? I am!
I like this because they are not using fancy technology or something complicated. They are using the tool to accomplish the job efficiently and effectively.
I am a big fan of WebQuests because they can be individual, pairs, or group and they're student driven which allows the teacher to be there for support when needed.
