WebQuest
WebQuests provide an authentic, technology-rich environment for problem solving, information processing, and collaboration. This inquiry-based approach to learning involves students in a wide range of activities that make good use of Internet-based resources.
Bernie Dodge developed the WebQuest concept back in the mid 1990s. His resources can be found at WebQuest.org.
