Reflection:
After creating this webquest, I realize how important it is to incorporate digital tools to reach 21st century learners. It is also important to develop digital lessons that require complex and critical thinking for students so that the tool is not just a digitized worksheet in disguise. This site, www.zunal.com, made the process easier because of the pre-made templates. I would recommend it to others. However, I also learned that creating something like this also takes a tremendous amount of time to do it right. It is not something that can be quickly and correctly completed at the last minute.
