WebQuests

Want to make your media specialist giddy with delight? Do a WebQuest! At least, my media specialist was excited :)

According to Netnet.org, a WebQuest is:
an inquiry-oriented activity in which most or all of the information used by students is online. By providing links necessary to complete the quest, the student is able to focus on the material rather than spend time looking for it.

I just spent the better part of an afternoon creating a Webquest on the instruments of the orchestra, based on Arts Alive Instrument Lab.


Disclaimer: The formatting issues are a little extreme, but I can't figure out how to attach documents on this blog. If you'd like a copy, I'll email you the pdf.

Has anyone else created, or can you recommend WebQuests for elementary kids?
