WEBQUEST

This week we learned about how Webquests are great tools to use in the classroom. It allows a teacher to set up a website for students explore a topic or subject. We looked at some samples of Webquest to view differences in the versions. Some Webquest had pictures that were attention grabbers; others were straight forward.

Using Wequest allows a teacher to have more control over what they set up. All links located on the Webquest are evaluated by the teacher; therefore the teacher knows that the websites are valid. In addition, it would reduce the time students’ use searching for websites since they are all located on the Webquest. Here is a site that explains a little more about the functions on Webquest.
