The wonder-web becomes one poster space that your students, not you, can maintain all year long. Though the poster board Wonder Web is a very useful design, it is not a perfect solution. Eventually, the space becomes filled and questions may need to be removed before students are done considering them. If someone is not in the room, they cannot make a contribution.

It is difficult to keep track of and evaluate the work of one student or a group of students over a long period of time. The Internet age allows us to think of new ways to carry out similar activities, new ways that address these problems and create new opportunities.

This could also lead to participation from other users of the Internet.
