Web Quests

Web Quests are a unique way to utilize technology and to better enhance learning within our classrooms.
Bernie Dodge is one of the pioneers of this innovative way to bring the
Internet into our curriculum. He explains a WebQuest as
        "an inquiry-oriented activity in which most or all of the information
            used by learners is drawn from the Web. WebQuests are designed to use
            learners' time well, to focus on using information rather than looking for it, and
            to support learners' thinking at the levels of analysis, synthesis and evaluation."
Below you will find a link to his site, eMINTS sites, and many other examples.
