Without ever having previous knowledge of what WebQuest is all about, I found this article to be very beneficial for those of us that are not WebQuest-savy. Explaining the history of who created the marvelous WebQuest, as well as how it has changed over the years, WebQuests really seem to be a beneficial tool in class curriculum.
Not only does this article explain the minor details of WQ, it also includes examples of sites that can be used in the classroom for projects or other forms of teaching and learning. WebQuests can be modified to be teacher and student friendly, as well as provide an abundant – and reliable – source of information.
Also included in this article, was information on how to write (and build) your own WebQuest. Then, there was important information about going into the details of the essential parts and guidelines of a WebQuest. Lastly, this article by Maureen Brown Yoder explains how to evaluate a WebQuest.
Not having been familiar with WebQuest before, I found this article very useful and beneficial in getting started with building my own. Essentially, I hope to make more pages as I get further along into teaching. These resources seem very fun for learning, at the same time, keeping them academic and providing useful information for anyone at any age.
