A site called Quest

Webquest:

Tips:
Keep a narrow focus to avoid a confusing quest

In the classroom:
It's Free!
Online scavenger hunt
Dynamic way to teach and to add depth to a topic
Makes seeking information an adventure
By making learning fun, it inspires students to seek out information
Can be like taking a field trip without even leaving your seat
Adds depth to what's being studied in the unit

Assessment:
Shows the research students are doing on a given topic, and a lot more fun than writing a long research paper
Teaches the students to educate themselves by researching on their own.
Used to reinforce what was learned in class.
