WebQuests
A WebQuest as defined by Bernie Dodge at San Diego University is "an
inquiry-oriented activity in which some or all of the information that learners
interact with comes from the Internet." WebQuests engage students in
authentic learning by requiring them to solve a real-life problem related to the
curriculum. Students analyze information from a variety of sources and
then develop solutions to the problem. WebQuests integrate technology with
classroom curriculum and encourage responsible use of the Internet. Click
