We are starting a new project using webquests. What is a webquest?
A webquest is a guide for students to search for specific information on the internet very effectively.
For example, students may be asked to serve as the caretaker of a National Park, and they might be encouraged to find information on animal species – native and foreign, care tips, eating habits, natural habitats, steps for conservation, etc. It’s a great way for teachers to integrate the power of the internet into their own curriculum.
We will be using created webquests to get familiar with them and then we will create our own on a science concept being covered in the classroom.
