What is a WebQuest?

"A WebQuest is an inquiry-oriented activity in which most or all of the information used by learners is drawn from the Web. WebQuests are designed to use learners' time well, to focus on using information rather than looking for it, and to support learners' thinking at the levels of analysis, synthesis and evaluation. The model was developed in early 1995 at San Diego State  University by Bernie Dodge with Tom March." To learn more about WebQuests take a look at "The Webquest Page" or "Reading & Training Materials" by Bernie Dodge.
