WebQuests: a Web Strategy to Get Your Students Involved!

WebQuests were created by Dr. Bernie Dodge and Tom March in 1995, at the San Diego State University. They have become such a popular strategy for teaching with the web, that many materials and tools have been developed to help newcomers (and more savvy users as well!) to develop a WebQuest of their own.

You can learn to build your own WebQuest by doing this tutorial:

This online Workshop has been set up in an order that guides you through the main steps of building a WebQuest, as well as guiding your reading so that you have the background information necessary to understand the concept.

We challenge you to try using this new teaching strategy for yourself. You'll be amazed at how involved your students become. And it's one of the best ways to use the resources available to you in this website!

Good luck in your quest!
