Best Practices: 

• Web activities are a great way to create open-ended, real-world assignments or to enrich learning experiences by providing links to timely and relevant web resources!
• Use this feature to highlight relevant websites or other resources, such as material from the Library Tab Resources
• NOTE: The items you post in Web Activities are non-gradable and will not be visible in the Connect Reports area
