Spanish Conquistadors Disscussion

After students got all the instruction and knowledge about the Spanish conquistadors, they had the chance to go and visit a wiki created on these conquistadors. Students did some readings, time lines and projects and at the end the watched some videos which gave them a broader understanding of what they have learned in class. Students posted discussions and reflected on what they have learned from the videos. It seemed to be that students where engaged while watching the videos and posting their disscussions in the wiki. They said that they loved doing this type of activities because they are learning in a fun an active way. I, for sure, will keep doing this with my classes.
