Webquest Portal

Webquest Portal

go toThe WEBQUEST Portal

At this site you will find a list of WebQuests that have been evaluated and found to be good examples of the WebQuest model.Top, Middling and New have a range of titles and descriptions for each level.Research has shown that the most important factor related to student learning and technology use is how teachers relate the technology-based activity to other learning activities. Therefore, it's important to clearly link your WebQuest to previous and subsequent activities, so that the WebQuest is not an isolated experience disconnected from the rest of your curriculum. Relatedly, WebQuests aren't the endpoint, but the beginning of student use of the Web for learning. Ideally, in the not so distant future, students will have internalised many of the cognitive strategies built into WebQuests, so that students direct and guide their own studies and findings.
