The  Socratic seminar  is a formal discussion, based on a text, in which the leader asks open-ended questions. Within the context of the discussion, students listen closely to the comments of others, thinking critically for themselves, and articulate their own thoughts and their responses to the thoughts of others. Inner - Outer circle activity This was a fun way to teach and see your students learning. It was pretty intimidating though. I think that some students would find this way of learning to be a little intimidating because everyone feels like you need to speak. Awkward silences could be a down fall. 

A  WebQuest  is an inquiry-oriented lesson format in which most or all the information that learners work with comes from the web. These can be created using various programs, including a simple word processing document that includes links to websites. The Introduction  orients students and captures their interest. The Task  describes the activity's end product. The Process  explains strategies students should use to complete the task. The Resources  are the Web sites students will use to complete the task. The Evaluation  measures the results of the activity. The Conclusion  sums up the activity and encourages students to reflect on its process and results. I honestly didn't love the format in which we did this for our tech class. It was wayyy to confusing and too many tools were required. I would use a maximum of 3 tools in a webquest. It would be a really fun way to learn though. The formant for google cites works best.
