It went OK. Students seemed to be tired and ready to go out. They were not very engaged in talking. Two students had a lot to say. The others were usually quiet.
One of the bookmarks in my delicious page did not work (I had wanted them to go to my bookmarks and click on a specific bookmark link). It is better to check before class.
I introduced delicious, webquest, and Oncourse wiki. Is it better to have them write their reflections on webquest in Oncourse Wiki or a Google page? Ay ideas?
I should think of a way to have a lively atmosphere in this Friday's class. Any ideas?

For the reflections, you could add them all to one Google Doc and have them use that as a wiki. Or they could create their own Google Doc and just add you. I tried using the OnCourse wiki before and I didn't like it. But that's completely up to you - it's convenient.
It's hard to pep them up on Fridays. Bringing in candy is always one option. Making them get up and move around is another. Just try to build in as many engaging activities and group work as possible. This will get them talking with one another at the very least.
You could also try some cognitive dissonance strategies. We can talk about these later.
