Description:

Bernie Dodge of San Diego State University developed the idea of WebQuests to teach students how to effectively use the Internet for research. Webquests are
inquiry based lessons in which all or part of the information that learners interact
with comes from resources on the Internet. A short-term WebQuest is designed to
be completed in a few class periods. At the end of a WebQuest, a learner will have
grappled with a significant amount of new information and made sense of it. Check out the link to WebQuest collections at http://edweb.sdsu.edu/webquest/webquest_collections.htm. These are lists of WebQuests created in various settings, mostly University courses and workshops.
