When I first heard the term WebQuest I immediately associated it with an online Scavenger Hunt, another busy work assignment for students to zip from one website to another to find fun facts and trivia about certain topics. Boy was I wrong!
Maureen Yoder’s article, “The Student WebQuest: A Productive and Thought-Provoking Use of the Internet” does an incredible job giving an in-depth look at what WebQuest are and ways to effectively integrate them into the classroom. I really liked how she explained each building block of a WebQuest (Introduction, Task, Process, Resources, Evaluation, and Conclusion) and I’ll definitely keep this article as reference for when I create my own WebQuests!
I can’t wait to use WebQuests in my classroom next year!
